I want to install .NET framework 3.5 on a couple of machines that do not have internet access. If I install the "no internet access"-package it still wants to download something. How can I figure out what is missing? Are there other installation packages?
As well as the .NET Framework 3.5 Redistributable, you must also have the required version of Windows Installer 3.1 Redistributable (v2). This may be the reason that the installer is trying to download more.
It's quite likely that at least one of the messages should say what it's trying to install, which is very likely to be a missing pre-requisite of some kind (although you've got the full installer for .Net it probably doesn't include all the pre-reqs but assumes that you'll already have them, and then helpfully tries to download and install them if not).
After downloading the zip file, extract all into a directory of your choosing. Navigate to this directory using Windows Explorer and double click on SC Programmer Setup 533.msi to begin the installation.
The .NET framework is a platform for building applications. Many programs, including Family Tree Maker, rely on the .NET framework; it must be installed and functioning correctly for these applications to run.
Reinstalling the .NET framework can resolve issues with Family Tree Maker not loading or crashing. After uninstalling Family Tree Maker, please follow the instructions from the Microsoft help article below to uninstall and reinstall the .NET frameworks for the version of Windows you are using.
.NET Framework runtime is used to run applications developed in Visual Studio with this framework. This page lists all the available .NET Framework runtime offline installers.if(typeof ez_ad_units!='undefined')ez_ad_units.push([[728,90],'itechtics_com-box-3','ezslot_3',646,'0','0']);__ez_fad_position('div-gpt-ad-itechtics_com-box-3-0');.NET Framework run-time is a Microsoft product used to run applications made with Visual Studio. If you read the system requirements of most of the modern software for Windows, you will see that most of them require .NET Framework to be installed on the computer so that the application can be installed and run properly.
From a download perspective, those numbers aren't too bad. It's not nearly as bad as its been made out to be. I'm not saying this as a Microsoft apologist or paid Microsoft shill, I'm showing the numbers that I have seen in my testing. This is my opinion based on my testing.
However, as a free-micro-ISV myself, and the distributor of a .NET Client Application, namely BabySmash!, I'd like the download size to me as SMALL as possible. I've personally received the same emails many of you have - "I'd love to download your software but I don't want to download a 200 meg .NET Framework." I'd like to help change that perception to get more people to run BabySmash! and the best way to change negative perceptions is to improve reality. ;)
The best way to get a user with reasonable Internet connectivity up on the 3.5 SP1 .NET Framework is with the 2.7 Meg "bootstrapper." This will detect what they need and only download what they need. The worst-case scenario for a x86 machine is around 60 megs, as seen in the table above.
The Client Profile is an even smaller install option for .NET 3.5 SP1 on XP. It's small 277k bootstrapper. When it's run on a Windows XP SP2 machines with no .NET Framework installed, it will download a 28 meg payload and give you a client-specific subset of .NET 3.5. If the Client Profile bootstrapper is run on a machine with any version of .NET on it, it'll act the same as the 3.5 SP1 web installer and detect what it needs to download, then go get it. There's more details in the Client Profile Deployment Guide.
Ultimately, this will be the best and fastest possible way to get the .NET Framework, as it's smart on each platform. I'm going to move BabySmash to the Client Profile to get new XP customers up on .NET more than twice as fast with less than half the total download size.
The Client Profile Offline Installer (Preview) that Chris noticed was big was such because it is another example of an offline installer. It is the Client Profile Setup + the Full Installer mentioned before. Again, this particular download is totally for offline only scenarios. Unless you need a completely offline scenario, neither you nor your users need download it. The Client Profile Bootstrapper and its associated customization tools will be released soon.
That giant .NET download is for one thing - It's meant for developers or administrators who might want to redistribute a a setup that contains not just the whole of the .NET Framework, but for all possible platforms. It has installers for x86, x64 and ia64. As mentioned above, you can customize it and make it smaller, shipping just what you need, based on your product's needs.
Over the next several months, machines with .NET 2.0 and up will start updating to the latest .NET 3.5SP1 using Windows Update. For ISVS (like me) this'll start to level versioning out so I'll know more about what's on the average user's machine. For example: If a machine already has .NET 3.5 on it, BabySmash is a small 1 meg download, which makes BabySmash, and me, look good.
Last night I made this website, SmallestDotNet.com to help out. It'll sniff your browser's UserAgent and tell you want version of .NET you have, how big the download would be to get you to .NET 3.5 and what .NET redistributable is best for you in order to minimize your download. As some newer online deployment options are released I'll update the site's sniffing to make sure that sizes and choices are is optimal.
SmallestDotNet.com also has some Javascript that you can add to your product's sites as an include, that can help let users know how big the download for .NET will be ahead of time, an lead users to the right downloads, like this:
The .NET Framework family also includes two versions for mobile or embedded device use. A reduced version of the framework, the .NET Compact Framework, is available on Windows CE platforms, including Windows Mobile devices such as smartphones. Additionally, the .NET Micro Framework is targeted at severely resource-constrained devices.
.NET Framework 3.0, formerly called WinFX,[48] was released on 6 November 2006. It includes a new set of managed code APIs that are an integral part of Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008. It is also available for Windows XP SP2 and Windows Server 2003 as a download. There are no major architectural changes included with this release; .NET Framework 3.0 uses the same CLR as .NET Framework 2.0.[49] Unlike the previous major .NET releases there was no .NET Compact Framework release made as a counterpart of this version. Version 3.0 of the .NET Framework shipped with Windows Vista. It also shipped with Windows Server 2008 as an optional component (disabled by default).
For the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 there is also a new variant of the .NET Framework, called the ".NET Framework Client Profile", which at 28 MB is significantly smaller than the full framework and only installs components that are the most relevant to desktop applications.[57] However, the Client Profile amounts to this size only if using the online installer on Windows XP SP2 when no other .NET Frameworks are installed or using Windows Update. When using the off-line installer or any other OS, the download size is still 250 MB.[58]
On 28 July 2009, a second release of the .NET Framework 4 beta was made available with experimental software transactional memory support.[66] This functionality is not available in the final version of the framework.
Microsoft .NET Framework is a software framework which is installed in Microsoft Windows. Software which are developed using .NET require .NET Framework to be installed in your system to be able to run.
