There is more than one way to check for .NET without a custom action.
Here's some of what I use to check for .NET 1.1 and 2.0, figure out the
path to 2.0 and warn the user if either is not found.
<Property Id="DOTNET11CHECK">
<RegistrySearch Id="DotNet11Search" Root="HKLM"
Key="SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\policy\v1.1" Name="4322"
Type="raw" />
</Property>
<Condition Message="[ProductRegName] requires Microsoft
.NET Framework 1.1 on this computer. Install Microsoft .NET Framework
1.1 and then run the installation program again.">
<![CDATA[DOTNET11CHECK]]>
</Condition>
<Property Id="DOTNET20CHECK">
<RegistrySearch Id="DotNet20Search" Root="HKLM"
Key="SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\policy\v2.0" Name="50727"
Type="raw" />
</Property>
<Property Id="DOTNET20PATH">
<RegistrySearch Id="DotNetSearch" Root="HKLM"
Key="Software\Microsoft\.NETFramework" Name="InstallRoot"
Type="directory" />
</Property>
<Condition Message="[ProductRegName] requires Microsoft
.NET Framework 2.0 on this computer. Install Microsoft .NET Framework
2.0 and then run the installation program again.">
<![CDATA[DOTNET20CHECK]]>
</Condition>

Subject: [WiX-users] Search for Installed Windows Component
Hi,
Is there a way to search for installed windows components ? Suppose I
have to search whether .Net is installed it or not. Can I do so without
the use of custom actions?
Regards,
Akshat
