I have written a C# program and then make the setup project.
I specify the prerequisite (.NET Framework 3.5) to be downloaded as the same
location as my location. However, I find that my project built has almost
200MB because the folder DotNetFX35 occupies 194MB already.
How can I make it smaller?
I don't want the user download .NET Framework 3.5 on Microsoft's website.
Thanks for any idea in advance.

If you restrict yourself to .NET 2.0 (in Project properties, change
framework version to 2.0), it will be much smaller.
If this is not the option, you will have to wait for .NET 3.5 SP1,
which includes a so-called "client profile" - a significantly trimmed-
down version of .NET Framework suitable for running desktop
applications.
Any alternative?
My program has to use .NET 3.5.
If I use the .NET 3.5 SP1 solution, can I set that to be executed
automatically when users open my setup file, rather than users click .NET
3.5 SP1 to install and then click my program to install?

Yes, same as with any other 3rd-party installer.
Keep in mind that SP1 in general, and client profile in particular, is
still in beta though. If you want to go that way, you'll have to wait
until release. Meanwhile, you may just want to experiment with the
beta and see how much does it save you in terms of size: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hello,
I am trying to make an executable for one of my applications with cx

I have created a setup project using the setup wizard and am now editing the

As always any help would be greatly appreciated.

I was told (I suspect incorrectly) to increment the Version of my setup
project every time I build a new MSI or the MSI won't install.
When I do that it tells me to change the ProductCode property of the project
which I suspect is a bad thing but I don't know any better so I do it anyway.
I guess the question is: when should I increment the version of my setup
project? And when I do should I change the ProductCode?
