Q: 

Click once deployment with framework 3.5 (When size in Mb's matters)

Currently i am publishing my app with clickonce and the V2.0 framework.

Users with no framework installed, should download the extra 20Mb of the framework.

What will happen if i decide to switch to the 3.5 framework?

Users should download first 50-60Mb's just for the framework and then install my app?

+2  A: 

Just have users install with the .Net 3.5 SP1 Bootstrapper. It's a 2.8 MB download that figures out what bits the user needs and only downloads and installs those. That way the download size is tailored to what each individual actually needs.
