Which is the best way to build an installer for my .NET application? Setup
project or Setup wizard? I have tried the MSDN help and googling about this
but haven't found any good information on how to do. Where can I find

AFAIK, a setup wizard is just a simplified way of building an installer.
It's likely to be inadequate if you're doing much more than installing a
couple of files. A setup project has a full IDE.
