InstallShield 2019
Components are elements of the application from the installation developer’s perspective. Components are not visible to the end user. When the user selects a feature for installation, the installer determines which components are associated with that feature and then those components are installed. Components of an application would contain the executable binary files, data files, shortcuts, help system files, and registry entries.
You can create and modify components in the Setup Design view (for installation projects) or the Components view.
Component-Feature Relationships

Components are associated with features in the Setup Design view. For more information, see Associating New Components with Features.
Files
Expand a component’s tree in the Setup Design view or the Components view and click Files to view a list of all files associated with that component. To learn how to add files, see Adding Files to Components.
