What is WIX? Your own installer for it?

Hi All,

I got a solution to install the framework after end of the wix installer installation.

Move file to application installation folder.

<component id="DotNetFramework4.0.exe" guid="F23D2C15-ADBB-41CB-9EE8-51410D572655">
              <file id="DotNetFramework4.0.exe" name="DotNetFramework4.0.exe" source="<source folder>\dotNetFx40_Client_x86_x64.exe" />
</component>

Add component ref

<pre lang="xml"><ComponentRef Id="DotNetFramework4.0.exe"/>
</pre>

Add install sequence

<installexecutesequence>
      <custom action="DotNetFramework4.0.exe" before="InstallFinalize">NOT ISDOTNET</custom>
    </installexecutesequence>

Add custom action

<customaction directory="<Target Directory>" execommand="[#DotNetFramework4.0.exe]" id="DotNetFramework4.0.exe" return="asyncNoWait" impersonate="no" execute="deferred" />
