Hi,

 

what is the main difference between for example installing dot net 4.5 via sfx (AIO Installer) or as Addon?

Will Addons be pre integrated so there is no real install when installing windows 7 (so less time) or is just

the same but i just don't see the install progress?

 

Who can clear this?

AFAIK it is just different packaging.

DotNet will still be installed on first launch.

Install progress can be hidden with sfx as well.

so i don't see a real advantage to switch to addon, i thougth it may be integrates like msu's... not

ricktendo's installers are smaller, always up to date and language packs are easy to add, so I prefer them over original+updates, but it's your choice.

Hi,

 

ok means ricktendo throws all the rubbish in he installer away?

But for what the hell do i need a language pack for dot net? Where is any gui i see?

Is the language pack for the settings windows of dot net?

The language pack is needed if you have a non English OS and the GUI you mention that need translations are .NET aplications and/or .NET error messages

Yes, I remove non essential stuff (but I also have a rebuilt installer that keeps that stuff and still saves you space)

My image can grow to be quite large so personally prefer a slim installer with no setup junk to conserve precious space.

Indeed. the less bloat the better.
