Open Source Windows Frameworks

Windows 8, and above version comes with version 4.x.x of .NET Framework. But if the user is upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 8, .NET Framework 3.5 is fully enabled. Most of the existing software require version 3.5 of .NET Framework installed to be able to run. When you try to install an app that requires .NET Framework 3.5 on these latest Windows it asks to connect to Internet inorder to download required installation files.its difficult to download if user's internet speed is low. if the user has Windows installation media he simply install .netfx3. Both 2 above methods have their own limitation. if the user does not have internet connection from the system which need .ntfx3 and if the user does not have Windows installation media, this app helps them to install .netfx3 offline without any installation media. and internet. it saves internet bandwith & time when downloading windows installation files. and also it has the feature to install .netfx3 from windows installation media.
