The ArcGIS Project Wizard opens automatically after creating a new project using an ArcGIS Project template and helps you efficiently set up a new ArcGIS customization project by automatically adding ArcGIS references and license initialization code to the project.
The tabs that are displayed for a project vary depending on the type of template selected. For example, a stand-alone application will always require license checking; therefore, the License Checking tab will be displayed if a Windows Application or Console Application project template was selected.
To open the ArcGIS Project Wizard, choose New Project from the File menu, select an ArcGIS project template, then click OK. See the following screen shot of the ArcGIS Project Wizard:
