This is not possible with ClickOnce applications.

and it also does not present a message that it has completed.

The app starts automatically after it is installed.

For the most part this is OK but it installs folder structure and files under the logged in users account which I could see being a possible problem for other restricted users on a system not being able to access the folders or files.

The program does start after install, but I can see a few examples of when I would not want it to start automatically specifically if I want to do a silent remote install.

I still cannot believe that there is not actual setup and deployment in this version seems like such a petty little thing to cut out.

The main idea about ClickOnce is isolation, if you have users that not even have access to their isolated storage you can deploy the app to some place central and let they run the app off there, for 'install mode' you would then choose the 'available online only' option.
