Hello
I am novice in VB.NET . I have developed a sample HelloWorld program and a setup application for it. VB.NET warned me that the client machine should install .NET Framework (DOTNETFX.EXE) in order to run the application. I tried it in my Windows ME and found a message "Setup cannot access Windows Installer components. Setup cannot continue." and it terminates. I can not run the setup application. I have found a log file in the Temp folder:

Is this possible to run .NET applications on Windows 9x? Any help will be appreciated. Thank you!

Isn't it that the receiving machine where you intend to install must have the right msi package installed?

If it is for Windows 95, 98 or ME http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...FamilyID=CEBBACD8-C094-4255-B702-DE3BB768148F may be valuable.

Thanks for replying. I am pretty sure that Windows Installer is installed. How can I know the version?

I've installed that file couple minutes ago and found the message "This service already exists."

And you found this on the machine you are trying to install the .msi? Perhaps you need to remove and re-install the latest version. Just a guess.

I never tried uninstalling it myself. So I am referring you to this link (Google is my friend.) in the hopes that it may help you. http://appdeploy.com/faq/windowsinstaller.shtml
