Hi, Does there is any fully offline installer for 2, 3, 3.5 for .net framework installer? Sometimes I need to install it to machines that do not have access to internet yet. When I googled it I've only found the add through the windows features which requires access to internet.
Try Code: start "" /wait /b "%~dp0NDP1.1sp1-KB867460-X86.exe" /i /q start "" /wait /b "%~dp0dotnetfx35.exe" /quiet /norestart start "" /wait /b "%~dp0NDP481-x86-x64-AllOS-ENU.exe" /q /norestart /LCID 1033 and use Winrar to create a SFX archive
If you want to cover a broader range of OS, it gets more complicated. Only recent versions of Windows 10 and 11 take 4.8.1. Older versions take only 4.8, or even only 4.6.
Correct. I remember being able to install .NET Framework 4.8 on Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. From what I read that's also the maximum on Windows 10 LTSC 2019 (version 1809). See: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/get-started/system-requirements PS: For .NET Framework 3.5 full installer, if you download the English version but then want to install on a non-English system without Internet, you have to trick it by invoking the installer with the argument: /lang:ENU My two cents.
Code: dotnetfx35.exe /lang:ENU You mean to run it like this? Also, is it possible to make unattended switchless installer using this switch above, I tried and used to do so in the XP era, but now do not remember the exact right way. Any help much appreciated.
@jineso Let's start withe the basics (as @Carlos Detweiller suggested): How many OS builds are you practically planning to service?
Yes. You can create a batch file with: Code: "%~dp0\dotnetfx35.exe" /lang:ENU And place it alongside the installer. They have documentation: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/windows Just throwing this out there, but it seems like the decision comes down to whether you want to support the older XP and Vista, or move forward with 7 and 8.1. And then there's also the consideration of whether to include older versions of Windows 10 in the mix. I'd like to add that you should remember that there are separate instructions for newer operating systems. Some take the .NET Framework 3.5 from the Windows ISO. For Windows 8.1: And there are similar instructions for Windows 10: learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/manufacture/desktop/deploy-net-framework-35-by-using-deployment-image-servicing-and-management--dism?view=windows-10 My two cents.
