.NET Framework 3.5 SP1 PreReq
I've just installed IS 2010 Professional. I'm converting an IS 2009 project. I downloaded the Installshield Objects, Prereq's etc for 2010 and installed them on my computer. But, when I look in the Redistributables the Prereq for Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 location is "Needs to be downloaded". My computer is NOT connected to the internet. I thought running the "installshieldprereqs_dotnot.exe" and other 2010 downloads would install it on my machine. Why does it appear to need to be downloaded? Is there another site I need to go to in order to get SP1?
Thank you.:)

check your paths for redistributables in the options for IS2010. I had an issue when first upgrading to IS2010 where it was still pointing at the prereqs folder for IS2009.

Thank you for the suggestion. I looked and the Redistributable path is correct. I also opened the PRQ file for Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 and it listed InstallShield\2010\SetupPrerequisites\Microsoft .net\3.5 SP1\Full which does contain dotnetfx35.exe BUT it does NOT include the helper.exe file which I believe is necessary? There is a helper.exe file in the \3.5\Full folder. Can I copy that helper file to the 3.5 SP1 folder? I still don't understand why it is listed as "needs to be downloaded" in the Redistributables View if it is there.

if any of the files are missing then it will be listed as needs to be downloaded.
as to copying the file from another location I am not sure if that will work or not as I have not tried it.

Thanks. I moved the helper.exe file from the .Net 3.5 Full folder to the .NET 3.5 SP1 Full folder and it did appear in the Prerequisites View as "installed locally". 🙂

I also had this problem but I was also missing the dotnetfx3.5.exe in addition to the Helper.exe in the 3.5SP1/Full folder.
I downloaded dotnetfx3.5.exe from the URL listed in the PreReq and copied the Helper.exe from 3.5/Full.
Thanks!
