Hi all,
I am trying to find the details on how I set Visual Studio 2010 Installer package so that it (1) Silently installs .net framework 4.0 client profile if it is not present and (2) Silently installs SQL Server Compact Framework 3.5SP2 if it is not present To achieve this, I believe that I have to turn off the prerequisite installation by unchecking the "Create setup program to install prerequisite components" checkbox in SetupProject=>Properties=>Prerequisites then manually add Launch Conditions to perform the prerequisite checks and install any missing prereqs manually. I have added the standalone installers into my application (dotNetFx40_Client_x86_x64.exe & SSCERuntime-ENU.msi SSCERuntime-ENU-x64.msi) Starting with the .net 4 client profile, I have added a Registry Launch Condition to search for existing .net 4 client profile. It's details are: (Name) Search for DotNet4 Client Profile Property DOTNET4INSTALLED RegKey SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Client\Install Root vsdrrHKLM Value 1 Next I added a Launch Condition called "Test for Dot Net 4 Client Profile" (Name) Test for Dot Net 4 Client Profile Condition DOTNET4INSTALLED InstallUrl ??? don't know what goes here Message <Error Message> I am unsure what I need to do next to get the .net 4 client profile installer to run if the registry is not found. Any ideas what I should do next? Regards, Tony
