VB Style CD Embedding with .Net Framework

In the old VB6 days it was possible to embed the runtime onto a cd and run the app automatically when the CD was popped in without having to run through an installation.

Is there开发者_运维知识库 anything available in .Net that mimics this?

Thanks Jacques

Yes and No.

You will always need the dotNet framework on the target PC.

But after that, you can run from a CD, use simple XCopy deployment or a make a ClickOnce installation.
