Okay. First point, you CAN'T run an Application created in .Net without .Net framework on the client machine.

Now for solution to your problem. You need to create a deployment project where you need to include .Net Framework re-distributable exe. In your deployment you run command like

dotnetfx35.exe /q /norestart

Now, this will install dotnet framework without re-starting the machine and then you deploy your own application.

A step-by-step guide for such deployment project is at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324733[^]

Hope that helps. If it does mark it as answer/upvote.

Thanks,
Milind

Solution 2

you should create setup [doesn't matter console or windows application both have same procedure to follow]
because to run application developed in .net environment it will need .net framework on client pc,
visit link or you can also search on google about steps for create setup in .net Win/console...
Visual Studio Windows Application Setup Project[^]

Happy Coding!

i dont want make setup...i saied my program is console aplication just i use cmd..command prompt

Aarti Meswania 16-Oct-12 3:16am

it is console app but developed in .net
so when you will put this exe on client pc and run it.. it will not been executed if on client pc similar or higher version of .net framework is not installed
because to execute lines of console app., it will need interpreter that can understand code & convert it into machine language (01..01) binary? ok.
and in your case that interpreter is .net framework

i know ...but may be we have a oulotion like qt(that included all libraries to need)
and may be in first soulotion can worked distributable exe and deployment project
mean include ...i use "Imports System.io"
maybe i can inport to my project this???!

it is inside .net framework so externally no need to add that dlls.

just add exe in setup project it will include dependency itself.
and also add .net framework from PREREQUISITES.
build setup
your setup is ready
install it on client pc and check...

rpm3d 16-Oct-12 3:28am

that is not any way for dont need to install :)

Aarti Meswania 16-Oct-12 3:32am

okay then do not create setup
.net framework is must. so install it alone on client pc
and copy exe on client pc then try to run if does't contain more dependency on other dlls then it will run
else the way is setup/deployment...

Solution 3

If you are making a console application and to execute in any other client machine without framework then you must have to create it in C or C++ language.An Simple application made by C or C++ never required depended assemblies.
