    I have used Visual Studio Installer to produce some MSI files to install my applications. I some PCs, where only WINNT or WIN2K OS is installed (MS office not installed)the MSI file cannot be executed. Does someone knows which application or DLL must be installed in the target machine in order to allow the MSI file execution ??? Thank a lot !!!

      The MSI installer must be installed on the machine you are targeting. Redistributable v1.2 for Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows ME[^]. The MSI installer comes automatically w/Win2k and higher.

        I believe in your properties area for your project you can say to compile into a msi or setup.exe with installer support.. then it will output a .msi plus a setup.exe etc... then you have to distribute all the files in your output dir..
