That is disappointing, so there is no way to install .NET 3.5 on Win8 without an internet connection (or original media)? I think you might mean Windows 2008 R2 rather than Win7 as the .NET 3.5 install runs ok on Win7. Neil >On 29-Aug-12 03:58, Neil Sleightholm wrote: >> As far as I am aware yo

I think this probably sums it up, fail deployment until the .NET Framework 3.5 is installed, or deploy without it and rely on the shim prompting for installation. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/hh975396.aspx Neil ---

Interesting Windows 8 say's (ocsetup /? ) OCSETUP has been deprecated. Please update your scripts to use DISM.exe to add or remove optional components from your system. I see this being a serious problem in deploying software timeously, before I could just install the .NET Framework, now i
