Configuration after install

I have a VB.NET 2003 application that I need the user to be able to
configure after installation, before running it. I am using the installer
than comes with VS.NET and have added an installer to my solution, which
works well and installs the application successfully. I have also added a
configuration project to my solution, then in the Custom Actions section of
the installer, under Install, I have added 'Primary Output from
Configuration (Active)', hoping that this would run the configuration
utility once the installation had completed. However, it doesn't - it just
installs normally, but the configuration application does not run. If I run
the configuration utility by clicking on the .EXE, it works fine. What am I
doing wrong? Thanks in advance.

On a new win2003 Standard install, I installed IIS and ASP.NET. I then installed .NET Framework 2.0 from MS Updates. In the management console, I've added in a .NET Configuration 1.1 snapin. But, I don't see the .NET 2.0 Framework Configuration snapin (in the list of available snapins). How can I resolve this?

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,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
