C# with Visual Studio: Published App Cannot Run After Installation

I wrote a simple reminder app for desktop in C#, and I can publish and install it with no problem. However, when I try to run the app, the icon shows up in the system tray for a brief second and then disappears, and then app doesn't open or show up anywhere. I checked the event viewer and it says that there are errors for "Application error" and ".NET Runtime"

It can run perfectly if I run it from Visual Studio. The issue only occurs when I try to install the app and then run it. I haven't tested on other computers yet.

I've checked my target framework in the Application tab of Visual Studio, and it says .NET Framework 4.5.2. I've made sure it matches when setting up the prerequisite, but it doesn't solve the issue.

"Application Error" Details:

Faulting application name: Reminder.exe, version: 1.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x5d47ba36

".NET Runtime" Details:

Application: Reminder.exe
Framework Version: v4.0.30319
Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.
Exception Info: System.IO.FileNotFoundException
   at Reminder_desktop_application.FileStreamer.GetData()
   at Reminder_desktop_application.TaskControler.LoadTasks()
   at Reminder_desktop_application.Reminder..ctor()
   at Reminder_desktop_application.Program.Main()

The error appears to be from: Get Data:

    public string[] GetData()
    {
        try
        {
            data = System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(FILE_NAME);
            return data;
        }
        catch (FileNotFoundException e)
        {
            throw new FileNotFoundException(e.ToString());
        }
    }

and LoadTasks:

    public void LoadTasks()
    {
        string[] lines = dataStreamer.GetData();
        string[] words;
        foreach(string line in lines)
        {
            words = line.Split(',').ToArray<string>();
            this.Add(new Task(words[2], Convert.ToDateTime(words[0]), TimeSpan.Parse(words[1]), Convert.ToBoolean(words[3])));
        }
    }

you can check if the file exist it will return the file contents and if not it will return an empty array like this :

    public IEnumerable<string> GetData()
    {
        // if file not exist return empty list 
        return !File.Exists(FILE_NAME) ? Enumerable.Empty<string>() : File.ReadAllLines(FILE_NAME);
    }

and now you can call your method like this

    dataStreamer.GetData().ToArray();
