We want to include .NET 4.0 Prerequisite (Full, not Client) with our installation. There are 3 options in your redistributables...
1) Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 Full (Web Download)
2) Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 Full Update KB2468871
3) Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 Full
I assume #3 includes it with the setup, which we don't want, so I'd want #1, for each user to download. But I'm confused by #2.
Is #2 an updated version of #1, so I only need to check it? Or is it a patch for #1, in which case, am I supposed to check both?
Also, it's my understanding that the user needs Admin privileges to install the .NET Framework. For users that aren't, assuming the prerequisite fails, will the setup continue and finish installing it's files?
