.NET 4.5 is newer than Installshield 2012 so it doesn't come with a PRQ file already for it.
You need to create a new setup prerequisite for it. Tools > Prerequisite Editor
Under Conditions click Add
Select "A registry entry has a specified version value"
Look for this key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Full
And this value name: Release
For the value to check, it will depend on your version of .NET framework. For example, version 4.5.2 will be 379893. Check the above registry value for yours.
Run this prereq if: Data on target system is less than specified data
In the Files to Include tab, point it to your .NET installer
In the Application to Run tab, select your .NET installer from the drop down.
In the next 2 boxes, enter "/q /norestart" without the quotes
And then for return codes "1641,3010" without the quotes.
