.NET does nothing on target machine

I do a simple unzip style deployment onto a target machine. This target
machine previously had a working version of my app on it but 30 seconds
after unzipping the new DLLs etc to this folder nothing happens when the
WinForm EXE is double-clicked.

Without getting the .NET 2 SDK downloaded onto this computer is there a way
I can find out what is going on?
Cheers

what framework are you targetting?
is it the same than your old app?
it's weird that nothing happens, at least an error message should be
displayed

2.0

Yes, the same app with modified GUI etc. All DLLs are marked
"CopyLocal=True " too.

displayed
I agree, and that's why I want to know what is happening :-) Does anyone
have any ideas?

If you can connect to the target machine using the debugger from your
development machine, you can try to debug the app.

If not, you can fall back on the old fashioned way by adding logging
statements to your code.

Also, check the Event logs on the target machine and see if anything
is logged in the event logs.

I have looked over most of the FSW questions in the forum and this one seems like a unique twist. Here it is.

I've been programming for a while, but most of my experience is on unix. How do C compilers work on operating systems that weren't written in C? And that have no libc?

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
