I can't confirm this but any setup project I ever worked with recently
does that "automatically" based on the project type you're providing
it when the project is created (in this case a .NET project so it
knows to put it on the target machine only if the framework isn't present).
That's one of the things set projects do for you.

I'm assuming that you're not creating you setup/install "manually"
using MSI but creating a setup project within .NET.

Open up VS .NET.
Select New Project
Select "Setup & Deployment Project"
Select the Setup project type based on the project you just developed

Fill in the blanks....

Hello All,

How can create a setup package that detects whether the framework is
installed and installs it if not present?
