When setting up a Setup Project
in Visual Studio 2010 and even to I removing all the prerequistes .NET 4.0
is still required on the computer that runs the Installation. Deploying with ClickOnce
works but is not an option, but at least it doesn't ask for .NET 4.0.
Is there a way to create a Setup Project in Visual Studio 2010 that doesn't require .NET 4.0 on installation?
Edit
This is one of the test configurations i've tested
And this is what it looks like when I run setup.exe or the .msi
The functionality of Visual Studio 2010, . NET Framework 4 and Silverlight 4 creates a powerful and unique combination, opening up new opportunities for developers to build applications that take advantage of new and existing devices, as well as emerging platforms like cloud services.”
Visual Studio requires . NET Framework 4.8 to run. If . NET Framework 4.8 isn't already installed, it will be installed during setup.
Support for . NET Framework 4 on Windows Server 2003 SP2 ended on July 14, 2015, and support on all other operating systems ended on January 12, 2016.
Right click on the setup project in the solution explorer -> View -> Launch Conditions and set the appropriate .NET framework version:
