      The only options I'm aware of are commercial (and very expensive) applications.

      Deja View - the feeling that you've seen this post before.

          Can I ask why you decided to target the .NET framework when the requirements were for an application that does not require this framework? It seems a bit convoluted to me?

            I believe Thinstall[^] offer a service where they will wrap up a .net exe with all the required stuff into 1 single executable that can be run on a system without .net installed. It really isn't cheap though:

            www.thinstall.com

            Pricing in North America starts at $4,995 for the Thinstall Virtualization Suite

            If it's just a simple console app, you should consider writing it in another language that doesn't require a runtime (c++ maybe) various versions of the .Net framework are included with various service packs, so it could already be on your client pc's, Aaron talks about it here[^]

                developing it some other platform is the only choice i think.... is there any utility that converts c# code into c++ code or runtime ?
