Question : Embedding an MSI inside the Setup.exe in Visual Studio

When I rebuild my project it produces two files...(1) and MSI file and (2) an EXE file.

The msi takes care of my Add-in the EXE takes care of my prerequisites.

How to I make it so that I only get 1 file generated by Visual Studio? I.e. One Setup.exe - where the MSI is embedded in the EXE?

I can't find that option in Visual Studio.

Thanks,

Yes, VS won't do it out of the box.  You could go find a zip utility and use visual studio automation to make it seamless when you publish, but that's probably more trouble than it's worth.
