How to check .Net Framework 3.5 is enabled in Windows Features

Hi Support,
Let me know how to verify whether .Net Framework 3.5 is enabled in Windows Features. If its disabled I have to alert the user to enable it and resume the installation. I don't want to enable it via AdvancedInstaller. I want the user to perform the enable/disable operation. Only I need to validate the status as "prerequisites for my installer".

Regards,

Hello Karthikeyan and welcome to our forums,

In order to achieve that, please have a look over the following Microsoft article:

Detect .NET Framework 1.0 through 4.0

To implement that in Advanced Installer, you could use a "Registry Search" and then use the property that saves the result of the search as a condition to display an "Error message" to the user.
