I have a project in VS2008 that targets .NET 2.0 framework. It was original set to build for AnyCPU. I changed it to x86 and for whatever reason, VS adds the following lines to .csproj:
<ItemGroup>
<BootstrapperPackage Include="Microsoft.Net.Client.3.5">
<Visible>False</Visible>
<ProductName>.NET Framework Client Profile</ProductName>
<Install>false</Install>
</BootstrapperPackage>
...
...
<BootstrapperPackage Include="Microsoft.Net.Framework.3.5.SP1">
<Visible>False</Visible>
<ProductName>.NET Framework 3.5 SP1</ProductName>
<Install>false</Install>
</BootstrapperPackage>
</ItemGroup>
Can someone explain as to why this is being added and whether I can safely remove it, as I still have to target the .NET 2.0 framework.
Thanks.
