Can anyone explain how to make silent (without any user interface) install of .NET 4? It looks like .NET installer ignores any switches from this article and show interface always. .NET Framework 4 installer is packed by NSIS.
NET Framework 4 require a complete regeneration of the Native Image Cache, a very time-consuming operation. For some computers, an interaction with previously installed Native Images may cause Native Image regeneration to take much longer than expected.
Go to Control Panel > Programs > Turn Windows features on or off, verify if . NET Framework 3.5 checkbox is selected and then proceed with the software installation. If the error persits, we will have to force the installation with the Windows command prompt (CMD).
A silent install is when an application or program is loaded to a user's computer without any dialogs or user input after starting. This means once the installation starts, the user is not offered any options to change or edit the installation process.
As you want to install the software silently, find the switch available for silent installation. Use this command to use the silent switch: "softwarename.exe /switch". Once you are done with the silent switch command, sit back and relax. Your software will get installed automatically.
dotnetfx40x86.exe /q
should do the trick.
