How should I deploy VS project/item templates?

Question

I made an installer for project and item templates in VS2010 to put the templates in the user's Templates folder. Is this an OK way of doing things? Or is there a way to deploy templates for all users? If so - where should I put them?

Answer 1

If all of the developers can access a common location, you can put your templates there and set the 'User project templates location' and 'User item templates location' properties in VS Options/Projects and Solutions/General
