You can do that with a VS setup project, but the IDE doesn't show the GAC by
default. In the File System view, if you right-click on the File System on
Target Machine icon you should see Add Special Folder, the GAC is in that
list.

But yes, I'm aware you can do it like that, thanks.
That's how I do it at work. I suppose it wouldn't matter whether it went in
the GAC or not for my hobbyist program, I just wondered whether it was
possible that's all, out of curiosity

Understood - many people take free to mean nothing more than Visual Studio.
Look here - some of these are free, such as Wix and Makemsi:
