Hi, @Legolash2o

We know that Net Framework 4.0 is needed to make W7T work. Here is my qustion: Does W7T need both packs (Client + Extended packages) or is it sufficient only to have Client packages installed in the system?

[jgp]

@oguz - I only have Client & it works.

[Legolash2o]

W7T need .NET 2.0

[bphlpt]

Which is already included in Win7. .NET 4.0 does not necessarily replace the previous versions of .NET, and the added features of .NET 4.0 are not needed for W7T.. So what you're really saying is:

"Don't remove .NET and expect W7T to work."

Correct? Or if you remove the existing .NET 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, and 3.5 BUT install .NET 4.0, if that is possible, will W7T work correctly?

Cheers and Regards

I haven't tested removing all .NET 2-3.5 and installing 4.0

[ChiefZeke]

Windows 7 - comes with all .NET up to 3.5 - users will only be required to install 4.0 as needed. I doubt if you can, or if it would be smart, to remove any of the .NET that are provided in the source DVD.

[bphlpt]

Oh I never said it would be smart, and I don't do it, but I know there are people who just want to remove every little thing that they think they don't need.

Cheers and Regards

In XP, you must install 2.0 first to install 3.5, and 3.5 first before installing .4.0, so i don't think .net 4.0 will work if you remove the former.

[Legolash2o]

All i know is that i've set W7T to work with .NET 2.0

Not that I am complaining or anything, would it be possible to make it compatible with .net 3.5 or even 4.0? (If possible, just remove the .net 2.0 restriction?)

[bphlpt]

I'm not sure if Legolash2o coded it to require 2.0 or 2.0 minimum. It depends if he checks for existence of/in a particular folder/reg key, or existence of a particular function. Besides, Win7 includes all versions of .NET except 4.0 already, and even in XP the standard installer for 3.5 includes 2.0 and 3.0. Are you one of those that removes parts of .NET that you don't think you will need, crashfly? if so, you could be a perfect person to tell us if W7T will work without .NET 2.0 installed. If you don't remove any parts of .NET, then I'm curious why you asked the question.

Cheers and Regards

[Legolash2o]

I think you need to have at least 2.0, i haven't tested with 2.0 removed and just having 3.5 installed.

My reasoning behind the question was purely academic. In my opinion, I think it is a better program that can be written to support most any .net you have installed instead of specifically requiring a certain version. I have not gotten to the point where I removed the "lesser" version of .net, but I consider it if that would help contribute to the programs development.

Hi, @Legolash2o

For adding what type of files can w7t "all in one" "files" be used? For example, can nlite and rvm addons, silent switchless addons or switchless installers be added from here?

What is "files" tab used for?

[oguz]

By the way,

Does W7T support .cab addons? If it does where can i add?

For example: "DirectXRuntimes-201006-Addon-32.cab"

[Legolash2o]

I downloaded that addon you mentioened but it doesn't seem to work with DISM or pkgmgr, so nope there is no support for it.

Hi Legolash2o,

I have a question: what do the tweak "disable IPV6" do exactly ?

Because i have used it on my installation, and now my firewall (Outpost) keep asking me for tcpv6 connections on boot by "System" and it's the first time it did that.
