Creating Installations for Microsoft's .NET Framework Using Wise for Windows Installer

Overview This paper provides an overview of creating an installation for an application created for Microsoft's .NET Framework. By following the process, a software developer can install private and shared .NET assemblies using a Windows Installer (.MSI) package. The .NET Framework makes it much easier to deploy certain types of applications, while others become more complicated and increase the reliance upon Microsoft's Windows Installer service.
