(Express) Unable to satisfy all prerequisites for App

Creating a simple contact tracking app for a friend... Whipped it up and sent it to him. When he runs the Setup.exe he gets the error

"Unable to satisfy all prerequisites for Gulfstream. Setup cannot continue until all system components have been successfully installed"

He is on Win7, this is built in VS2012 Express

Imports System
Imports System.IO
Imports System.Text.RegularExpressions
Imports System.Diagnostics

I built it with .NET 3.5 SP1 and have it set to "Create setup program to install prerequisite components" / Download

looking at the references it looks like most only use net 2... stumped.



since there is really not much to the app, could i just send him the exe from the build folder?

Thanks!

I would try to send him the EXE as Windows 7 already includes .NET Framework 3.5.1 ( including .NET Framework 2.0 SP2, 3.0 SP2 and 3.5 SP1 )

perhaps that solves his problem?

3.5 is an extension of 2.0, many of the references in a 3.5 project still use 2.0 libraries.
