Setup Interrupted; Requires the .NET Framework
-
I was trying to install a program onto another computer, but the setup was aborted because the target computer did not have the .NET framework. During deployment, there was a warning that said "WARNING: This setup does not contain the .NET Framework which must be installed on the target machine by running dotnetfx.exe before this setup will install. You can find dotnetfx.exe on the Visual Studio .NET 'Windows Components Update' media. Dotnetfx.exe can be redistributed with your setup." I've located that dotnetfx.exe on the component CD, but DOES ANY COMPUTER THAT I WISH TO INSTALL MY APPLICATION REQUIRE THE INSTALLATION OF THE .NET FRAMEWORK? If so, what is the proper procedure on including that file into my setup? also, is there anyway around installing the .Net Framework. Thank you for your time.

Ya, any PC you want to run an application you've written in .NET needs to have the DotNET framework installed. PC's that have Windows XP or Windows 2003 will have the framework already installed. I'm not sure how to detect if the person has the .NET framework installed so I can't help you with that.

Windows XP doesn't have the framework by default. Allegedly it will find its way into an upcoming service pack. Not sure about 2003 though, you may be right.
