Changing ClickOnce Application to Normal?

I recently programmed an application with c# and I was wondering if it is possible to change from ClickOnce to a normal Windows Application without clickonce because everytime the program starts up an irritating Window pops up like so: enter image description here

Edit:

I forgot to mention that it also irritates me that when you install the program in the program files it shows itself as a 'ClickOnce Application Reference' Is there any other way to have the files set out?

For example if I were to create a professional program and I wouldn't want the user to know ClickOnce was used but instead I used Dlls and Exe's, How would this be possible?

ClickOnce is a deployment method; in itself it doesn't change your code or your application. In that sense, you don't need to "change" anything to make the app non-click-once.

You can disable the publishing settings of your application entirely and just distribute the build outputs yourself, or create an installer - or disable the ClickOnce "check for updates" feature, which is accessible through the project properties screen (Publish tab, click "Updates...").
