In windows 8 Consumer Preview, I can enable ASP.NET 4.5 in Turn Windows features on or off/.NET Framework 4.5 Advanced Services/ASP.NET 4.5. To do this programmatically I used to run a Windows utility "pkgmrg.exe" in Windows 7, which requirs to specify the package name. Anyone knows the package name for ASP.NET 4.5 in Windows 8?
What you are looking for is dism.exe:
dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx4Extended-ASPNET45

I have published a mini project in VB.NET 2010, I'm currently using windows 7. The problem is after i transfer it to windows xp(sp2) and install it some of the buttons are not working. It is working properly when I install it to my laptop with windows 7.
Did you try installing .NET Framework 4 on Windows XP? Also you can try to install older versions like 3.5. After installing your program should work.
Download .NET Framework 4 from Microsoft
Can anyone know why WIX Customaction.dll not working with Windows XP with service pack 3?As i developed my .msi with Wix setup in Windows 8 machine with VS 2010 environment.And this is working fine and is calling my customaction.CA.dll.Where as when i tried to test the same msi in windows XP machine this not working? do i need to do any changes in the customAction.dll so that it will work in XP machine also?Please help me to solve this issue.
Thanks
You might be used .NET Framework 4.0 (CLR 4.0) in your custom action. It will not run in .NET Framework 4.0 or newer is not installed machine.
In your XP machine .NET Framework 4.0 may not be installed. So that you’re custom action is not running.
Use useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy property in your CustomAction.Config file and set all supported time version which you want to use (CLR 2.0 for .Net Framework 2.0 and 3.5, CLR 4.0 for .Net Framework 4.0 and 4.5)
Assuming a WinPE 4.0 image is setup correctly with the WinPE-NetFx4.cab, WinPE-NetFx4_en-us.cab and prerequisite packages like WMI, should an app built in Visual Studio 2008 for .NET 3.5 execute? Or, is the app linked to strong name signed 3.5 assemblies such that it will not use the equivalent ones in .NET 4.0?
I'm also using WinPE 4.0 and experienced the same issue. Most of my app developed using earlier version of .NET Framework (.NET 3.0 & 3.5) will not execute (execute but nothing show up on screen)
A further investigation was made into the WinPE 4.0 WIM's Windows directory "Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework" show only signs of version 4 (for my case v4.0.30319) was installed (WinPE-NetFx4.cab).
This concludes Microsoft's WinPE 4.0 only supports .NET Framework 4.
In order to make your app work again, re-compiled them using .NET Framework 4 assemblies.
We have built an app with Visual Studio 2012 and it runs beautifully on any Windows 7 or Vista machine, 32 or 64 bit. However, when I try to run the app on an Win XP machine, I get this:
**
Prerequisite check for system component Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5
(x86 and x64) failed with the following error message:
"Installation of the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5 is not supported on
this operating system. Contact your application vendor."
**
And then of course, when I try to install .NET 4.5 on the Win XP machine, I find out it's not supported.
At this point, I'm just wanting to know what can be done to get this app to run on Win XP. It's a calculator application written in visual basic.
Thanks Guys!
.Net framework 4.5 is not supported in Windows XP. If you're not using any .Net 4.5 features you can rebuild your app using .Net Framework 4 (In the Project properties).
I always hate these kind of answers, but a quick google search indicates that you can't get .net 4.5 to run on Windows XP.
IF you really really need your application to run, you can always use earlier versions of the framework
you can do this by
Right click on your project and go to
properties
application
target framework
and change that to something elxe
I found that links:
Microsoft .NET Framework 4 (Web Installer)
Microsoft .NET Framework 4 (Standalone Installer)
Microsoft .NET Framework 4 Client Profile (Standalone Installer)
Note that (2) the size is 48.0 MB and the (3) the size is 41.0 MB. It's not the REAL .Net 4 Full Standalone. :(
I want that installer in a usb pen drive because my app need of features of .Net 4 Full Framework (like MSBuild) and I will install in a enviroment without Internet access.
PS: I tested the (2) and really is the Client Profile with another name... :(
Actually, you already found the full .NET 4 SDK. Microsoft put in a lot of effort to decrease the size.
The Microsoft .NET Framework 4
redistributable package installs the
.NET Framework runtime and associated
files that are required to run and
develop applications to target the
.NET Framework 4.
Have a look at this hanselpost.
The prerequisites have changed since .NET 3.5 SP1, .NET 4.0 requires at least XP SP3, Windows 2003 SP2 or Vista SP1. .NET 3.5 could be installed on any version of these operating systems, including a 11 year old completely unpatched version of XP.
So the 3.5 installer also needs to be able to update a bunch of native Windows components.
Not having to include the Windows component updates and additions allowed for a significant size reduction. If that's an issue then you'll have to include the Windows service pack installers on your pen drive.
