how to install microsoft .NET client profile of 30 MB size ?

Question

Hi,

i have a host pc(Vista) and virtual pc(XP). ON my virtual pc i dont have .NET framework, only Visual studio 2008.

On my host pc i have Vs 2008 SP1 with all of the .NET framework components.
In Prerequisite window, "Choose which prerequisite to install" i have only checked .NET Client profile.

When i am using a click once installer to publish my project in Virtual pc then it is installing all of the .Net framework component example 2.0 , 3.0 , 3.5 , 3.5 SP1 which is taking a huge space approximately 300 MB on my virtual machine.

I want that the client profile should not use more then 30 Mb .how to do so?

Can u please help.. Thanks...

Answer 1

If you're program requires .net Framework 3.5, then the installer will download .net Framework 3.5.

In practice, most potential clients will already have this installed on their computer.
