Make sure you increment the version number of your application. The setup wizard will not overwrite an exe with the same version number.

This time, however, when I run the setup.exe it only updates the icon, stf file, but not the application itself. For some reason, the exe will not be updated if it already exists - even after a complete rebuild and install (rather than reinstall).
