+ \section2 Visual Studio 2008 And Manual Installs
+
+ As well as the above details for VS 2005 and onwards, Visual Studio 2008
+ applications may have problems when deploying manually, say to a USB
+ stick.
+
+ The recommended procedure is to configure Qt with the \c -plugin-manifests
+ option using the 'configure' tool. Then follow the \l {http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms235291(VS.80).aspx}{guidelines}
+ for manually deploying private assemblies.
+
+ In brief the steps are
+
+ \list 1
+
+ \o create a folder structure on the development computer that will match the target USB stick directory structure, for example '\\app' and for your dlls, '\\app\\lib'.
+
+ \o on the development computer, from the appropriate 'redist' folder copy over Microsoft.VC80.CRT and Microsoft.VC80.MFC to the directories '\\app' and '\\app\\lib' on the development PC.
+
+ \o xcopy the \\app folder to the target USB stick.
+ \endlist
+
+ Your application should now run. Also be aware that even with a service
+ pack installed the Windows DLLs that are linked to will be the defaults. See
+ the information on \l {http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc664727.aspx}{how to select the appropriate target DLLs}.
