The short version of the application title.

The value of this property is used in the out-of-browser installation dialog box and on the installed application shortcuts.

This property is required, but it is read-only at run time, but you can set it in the out-of-browser configuration. For more information, see How to: Configure an Application for Out-of-Browser Support.

Note:
The ShortName value must remain the same across multiple versions of an application for the update mechanism to work correctly.

Supported in: 5, 4, 3
