Here are only a few tips ).
If you want to use the form that selects the installation type and which components to install, this form is called checkboxes dialog, you can search"Checkboxes"Dialog boxes". I am not sure how to use it.

Other Tips
Tip: select the component to install
For example, if you select greatwall.exe as the first component, you can select gregreatwall.exe to install the greatwall.exe file. To achieve this effect, you need to associate the options with the file. The specific operation is: Add checkboxes, set checkbox1label to "true", and copy the value of checkbox1property, switch to file system.exe and find the condition in the freatwall.exe attribute. paste the copied content.
Tip:
Files Added from Solution Explorer are in application folder, while Files Added using other methods can be in any folder.
