Before you install .NET 2.0/3.0 on a modern system, consider the following:
For IT pros deploying to many offline machines: net framework 2.0 and 3.0 offline installer
dotnetfx35_full_x86_x64.exe /quiet /norestart
Add /log C:\temp\dotnetlog.txt for debugging. After completion, run shutdown /r /t 5 to reboot. Before you install
To understand the offline installer, you must understand Microsoft's versioning logic. There was no standalone "3.0" runtime. For IT pros deploying to many offline machines:
The Golden Rule: When you install .NET Framework 3.5 (offline), you automatically install .NET 2.0 and 3.0. There is no separate "offline installer for 2.0 only."
Important Note:
.NET Framework 3.0 is not a standalone product. It is an add-on to .NET Framework 2.0. To install 3.0, you must first have 2.0 (or install them in order). However, Microsoft later released .NET Framework 3.5, which includes both 2.0 and 3.0. For modern Windows systems (Windows 7 and later), it is strongly recommended to install .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 instead.
But if you specifically need the original, standalone offline installers for legacy applications (e.g., older software on Windows XP or Vista without internet), use the links below.
