In VS-2010 you may add a setup installer project into your application (Not sure in VS-2013 may be through third party installer project Wix etc) After adding installer project and setting up properly you need to add an installer class into your main project In this class you need to define you custom Actions during install Refer http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/9cdb5eda(v=vs.100).aspx Then on the install method get the Product Name etc info and save into your database public override void Install(System.Collections.
