Force installation of .Net 3.5 client profile

I specify ".NET Framework 3.5 Client Profile" as a prerequisite. I then remove it from my system to see if the installer tries to install it. Without it the app exits by throwing an exception. I have .NET 3.5 SP2 and .NET 4 Client Profile still installed. I am trying to simulate a user that is installing my app for the first time and does not have the correct .NET component installed.

Another component, a driver, installs just fine.

Attached is my aip file and the install output.

Re: Force installation of .Net 3.5 client profile

Hi,

I analyzed your log and found that the installation completes successfully. The prerequisite is set as features based, to install after the main package.

Do you have any problems during the install process?
