I'm using Visual C# Standard 2003 for this.
I've got a component that uses interop to call Shell32.dll.
The setup project that I've created wants to include a copy
of Shell32.dll in the project.
Shell32.dll is over 8MB and I do not wish to include it.
I've told Visual Studio to exclude Shell32.dll and my program works
fine without it.
Question is, will I have any problems when deploying to an
unknown users system?
Is Shell32.dll included in all versions of Windows?
Thanks,
Jon

Yes it is, you shouldn't distribute it.
