About "Turn Windows Feature on or off"

[chris]

I have developed a program using dotnet, Now i want to deploy on other
Vista machine,
It's OK in most of cast, but if User have turned off the ".NET 3.0",
my program can't work.

So i need to detect whether the ".NET 3.0" is on in my setup program,
Does anybody know how to do it?

Unfortunately, there is no API to get the Framework version.

Look at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework
Setup\NDP\v3.0\Setup

See if DWORD value InstallSuccess == 1.

If true, .NET 3.0 is installed.

See http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa480173.aspx for details.

Hope it helps!
