title: A .deploy file is not deploying an XML file
body: <p>I'm developing an application using MS <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Visual_Studio_Express#Visual_C.23_Express" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Visual C# 2008 Express</a> that uses the ClickOnce deployment functionality. I publish the application to a a server where users can download it.</p>
  
  <p>Upon running the application, it throws a file not found exception - it cannot find the XML file that the application pulls data from (<code>Instructions.xml</code>).</p>
  
  <p>When I go to the server and into the Application Files folder, I see .deploy files. One of them is for <code>Instructions.xml.deploy</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Why is <code>Instructions.xml</code> not being included in the user's download?</p>
  
  <p>Of course, if I manually copy <code>Instructions.xml</code> to my personal copy of the program, the program works fine. But the publishing process is supposed to (via <code>Instructions.xml.deploy</code>?) copy / deploy this file automatically.</p>
