This update includes two setup prerequisites:

• Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 (Web Download).prq?This prerequisite downloads only the components that are needed on the target system for .NET Framework 3.5. This option requires that your end users have an Internet connection.
• Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5.prq?This prerequisite includes the entire .NET Framework installer. This installer is 200 MB, since it includes all of the required files for all supported configurations. Therefore, this option increases the size of your installation much more than the Web download prerequisite.

Use these setup prerequisites to add support for installing the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 with any Basic MSI, InstallScript MSI, or Express installation. After adding the .prq files to your computer, you can add these to your projects by going to the Redistributables view and selecting one of the above setup prerequisite files.

1. Ensure that you have InstallShield 2008 installed. To verify this, click About InstallShield on the Help menu in InstallShield.
2. Download the IS2008Net35.zip file.
3. Unzip the contents of the .zip file. Place the two .prq files in the following location: <InstallShield Program Files Folder>\Setup Prequisites. The default location is one of the following locations:
   • C:\Program Files\Macrovision\IS2008\SetupPrerequisites (for Premier and Professional editions)
   • C:\Program Files\Macrovision\IS 2008 Express\SetupPrerequisites (for Express edition)
4. In the "Redistributables" view within the InstallShield IDE, right-click on "Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5" and choose "Download Selected Item".
