Or you publish the application :D
I know that I tried to decompile my own application when it came from debug , and decompiling was possible , but when i did publish , it couldn't be decompilable... But I doubt if it's always like that.. or maybe I'm just stupid :P
It can be de-compiled still, since you didn't obfuscate it... it just made installer that would grab the files from a same folder as the installer (or subfolder called resources, application files or something)

It's extension is something like ".exe.IDK"

You don't actually need to install the program through the setup that the publish does, just re-name the files in the application folder to make it work without the installer

That way you can de-compile it, and any dynamic link libs came with it

And when you install it through the installer, it will be on your computer at a specific location, just track it down and you can still de-compile it

I dont recomend using publish, just grab the files from build and obfuscate
I know that i renamed it and decompiled it. The strings were weird :P
