Re: [WiX-users] Windows 8 NetFX3.5
That is disappointing, so there is no way to install .NET 3.5 on Win8 without an internet connection (or original media)? I think you might mean Windows 2008 R2 rather than Win7 as the .NET 3.5 install runs ok on Win7.

Entirely too complicated!

Fortunately I don't have to worry about this right now. I can just author a LaunchCondition as all of my deliverables to the SCCM team are single MSI's with no prereq handling.
