Remarks

The deployment manifest file identifies a ClickOnce application deployment, including the current version and other deployment settings. It references the application manifest, which describes the current version of the application and all of the files contained within the deployment.

For more information, see ClickOnce Security and Deployment.

File location

The deployment manifest file references the correct application manifest for the current version of the application. When you make a new version of an application deployment available, you must update the deployment manifest to refer to the new application manifest.

The deployment manifest file must be strongly named and can also contain certificates for publisher validation.

File name syntax

The name of a deployment manifest file must end with the .application extension.
