Need help to find release view option in IS 2011

Hi,

When I install MSI pacakg ,there is no entry in Add/Remove Programs.
I read below line and got to know that there is setting which needs to set to "Yes"
But I am not finding this release view.
what mean by Release view?Where I should look at to see below settings.


In an InstallScript MSI project—To prevent your product from appearing in the Add or Remove Programs, select Yes for the Hide

Add/Remove Panel Entry setting in the Releases view.

Note: I'm using IS 2011.

Thanks
Vikram

In the INstallation Designer main tab you have a tree view on the left hand side.
In that tree you have a Media node under which you can see the Releases view. In the Build tab of Releases view you have the Hide Add\Remove Panel Entry.

Are you sure what you are working on is an INstallscript MSI project and not a Basic MSI project?

Take a look at the Window Title of your IDE. It should mention one of the following:
{Project Name} - Installshield[Installscript MSI Project]
OR
{Project Name} - Installshield[Installscript Project]
OR
{Project Name} - Installshield[Basic MSI Project]

What do you see?
