This is pleasantly simple to do :)

In response to a user action (clicking a button, etc.) add the following code: Application.Current.Install(); e.g.

private void Button_Click_1(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    Application.Current.Install();
}

Configure the application to run out of browser (OOB):

In the project properties page, tick the"Enable running application out of the browser"

The Out-Of-Browser Settings button now becomes enabled: this lets you specify OOB window and shortcut names, description, and an application icon in 4 different sizes.

You can un-install an OOB app by running it (from the desktop or programs menu) and right-clicking and choosing "Remove this application".
