How do I build an application in Lv8.0 and end up with an install file with an .exe.

I have tried repeatedly to use the V8.0 build an install for my .vi. All I end up with is an install file with the .vi and it very handily installs the .vi source onto my target machine in the program files folder. How do I build the install to include the .exe? I must have an incorrect setting somewhere. I have tried to follow the instructions in the help to no avail.
 
Pls help.
Thanks,
Chris

First you built the executable, then an installer for that executable. Typically, you don't install any VIs.

After building the executable, move it to the right place in the "source files" screen when you built the installer.
