    [SOLVED] .NET and Windows 8

    Hi all,

    I want to understand how installing an application that requires .net works on windows 8.

    I've seen this question: http://superuser.com/q/491000/85165 but don't know how it works in practice.

    Will the user need to download .net 3.5 separately to a download of my program if its required, or will they install it from the CD, or is it already on their HDD with windows, but not activated?

    Thanks!

    The user will not have to download anything. I can't recall whether the original media was required to enable that feature or not but it's definitely not an extra download.
