Bootstrapper plugin and Windows SP2

Visual Studio132
I have a user saying that she is getting the error

message that .Net Framework is not installed when she

runs my installer file for my program.



OK, that's right... if no .Net Framework is installed

then it should give that message.



The user is at Windows XP level Service Pack 2.



I asked her to go look at Windows Update under custom

install to see if installing Framework 1.1 appears as an

option... she says that it does not appear as an option.



I take it from this that .Net is already installed else

it would appear as an option to be installed??



Can you think of why the installer is complaining

that .Net Framework is not installed?



Can you tell me a way to force Windows update to

install .Net Framework 1.1.??



Or maybe this is a result of something funny that happens

when a person puts SP2 on their computer.



I have other people that ARE successful with installling

the program from the same link on my web site.



Thanks in advance for all your help.

Re:Bootstrapper plugin and Windows SP2

To be more concise...



How do you tell if FrameWork .Net 1.1 is installed on a

Windows XP computer??



My installer is saying it is not installed but for the

life of me I can not find where in Windows Update to

select (or force) an install. Which I guess should mean

that it is already installed??
