The .NET/J# tab is where you add support for the 32-bit versions of the .NET Framework 1.0, 1.1, or 2.0.
It is also where you add J# support to your project.
Note: To include other versions of the .NET Framework redistributables in your project, use the Redistributables view to
add the appropriate InstallShield prerequisite for the Microsoft .NET Framework to your project.

Specify where the .NET Framework runtime should be located. The .NET
Framework is required for applications that are using any .NET features. Valid
options are:
• Copy From Source Media—Leave the .NET Framework runtime on
the root of the source media. This option is not applicable to
WebDeployment or SingleImage media types with all of your files
compressed into Setup.exe.
• Extract From Setup.exe—Compress the .NET Framework runtime
into Setup.exe, to be extracted at run time.
• Download from the Web—Download the .NET Framework runtime (if
necessary) from a URL that you specify. If you select this option, you
must set the value of the .NET and J# Framework URL setting to the
appropriate Web location.
• Do Not Include—Do not include the redistributable for the .NET
Framework 1.0, 1.1, or 2.0 in the selected release.
Select the version of the .NET Framework that you want to distribute with
your installation.
Note: To include .NET Framework 3.5, 3.0 SP1, 3.0, or 2.0 SP1
redistributables in your project, use the Redistributables view to add the
appropriate InstallShield prerequisite for the Microsoft .NET Framework to
your project.
For more information, see Adding .NET Framework Redistributables to
Projects.
If you selected .NET version 1.1 for the .NET Framework Version setting, you
can specify one .NET core language that you want to distribute. This is the
language that is used while the .NET 1.1 core redistributable is installed. If
you selected version 2.0, the language options are all selected and disabled
since they are all included with this version of the redistributable.
To change the core language, click the ellipsis button (...) in this setting.
