prompt if .net framework 2.0 not installed

3 New Member
Hi!

Can you advise me an Installer Maker Program, that is able to make Installers with the ability to check if .net framework 2.0 is installed, and if not, can also install that with my application?

Thank you!

You could do this in code - try 2.0 code catch then 1.1 end try - but I don't know of any installers.

If you are trying to determine if the .Net Framework is installed on the computer before installing your application, you can use a web setup project. When an msi is run that has been created by a web setup project, it will automatically check to see if the .NET FX is installed.
If not, a message box will appear with a link to a web page where the FX may be downloaded. This is the step you have to bypass. Instead of showing the message box, you should execute your FX executable.

Does the .net framework v1.1 come pre-installed on new Window's PC's? For example, there is a recent news article about AOL selling a $299 PC bundle that has Windows XP Home edition- will this PC have the 1.1 framework installed? The article said the PC would have StarOffice installed, which leads me to believe it will probably have a Sun JVM installed. http://www.msnbc.com/news/1001293.asp?0dm=C14OT Is MS able to require all new Windows...

This has not yet been published by Microsoft. It will be published within the next few weeks, mainly because I asked them to. I felt this was information badly needed, and I think this is the best group to share this information.

We had to do this because we had to manually deploy the MS05-004 Security Bulletin to thousands of...

Hello, The .NET Framework is about 20MB which is large compared to some apps. Can I assume that the Framework is on modern PCs? Does modern mean PCs sold in the last 6 months, 12 months, etc?? Cheers Geoff

Of course, the install program said I needed to update some components so it ran the updates on the Component...

Hi, Is there a way through the web to find out if a client has the framework 1.1 installed ? I want people to download an installer for our software which includes the framework 1.1 if they haven't installed it yet, but how can I detect this to avoid people downloading the big installer package if the already have the framework installed.

I know I drilled down into the Windows folder\Microsoft.net\Framework\v1.1.4322 folder and looked at the version of Mscorcfg.dll to get the SP level from the version number: Mine shows v1.1.4322.573 which is supposed to be 1.1 with no service packs.

Hi, Just wondering if anyone had come across the following situation. I currently have VS2003 installed on my machine and it's been working perfectly since day one. Whilst waiting for our VS2005 to turn up I installed the .Net v2 framework SDK on my machine. After doing this, my VS2003 VBC.EXE just will not run from the DOS prompt at all. When you call it it just sits there doing nothing.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. 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,...
