Run .NET application without install the framework

[Pino]

Hi to all.

I would like to run .NET application without install the framework on my
computer. This is a requirement for my application because it will
downloaded from the internet.

I know there are various "compilers" which link all the assemblies of a
project and embed the .NET Framework.

Have you got any experience?

Thanks,

Pino.

I'm don't think you can actually 'embed' .NET the way you might be looking
for, but you can include the .NET redistributable in your setup application
and it will install .NET if it detects a need for it. This just requires a
slight alteration of the setup project:

A slightly more advanced solution is something like this:
