This message can safely be ignored. InstallShield is not really trying to use the file DotNetInstaller.exe without .NET Framework being installed. The DotNetInstaller.exe file is merely cached in the engine location for future use.

InstallShield installs DotNetInstaller.exe as part of its engine files, which is a .NET application that is used when a setup is installing .NET assemblies.

DotNetInstaller.exe will not work on systems that do not have the .NET Framework, but the file is cached with the InstallShield engine files just in case it is needed in the future when the .NET Framework is installed.

WinDoctor recognizes DotNetInstaller.exe as a .NET application that depends on the .NET Framework and reports its findings. WinDoctor's findings are technically correct, but InstallShield always checks for the Framework before trying to use it.

Or download and put the file in the C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Professional\RunTime\0701\Intel32 folder

"C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Professional\RunTime\0701\Intel32\DotNetInstaller.exe" cannot access a necessary file, "mscoree.dll."

One Button Checkup can't repair Program Integrety problems (perhaps same.) Is this a problem?

Also, I have found related file(DotNetInstaller.exe). Can this be safely deleted?

Thank you. Have a great day.

There have been many problems reported by Norton users following the latest 01/07/04 update.

Suggest you wait a bit, till problems become clearer or Norton sorts it out.( usually as a patch in new update)

I sure hope they get it straightened out soon. More and more I'm noticing sluggishness and programs (particularly Norton) bugging out. And until now I've enjoyed usung Norton.

http://www.downloadthis.net/dllfiles.html

unzipped it and copy the mscoree.dll file into your "DotNetInstaller.exe" file which is located on your hard drive at:

C:\ProgramFiles\CommonFiles\InstallShield\Professional\RunTime\0701\Intel32\DotNetInstaller.exe

I downloaded http://www.downloadthis.net/dllfiles.html but when I attempt to locate C:\ProgramFiles\CommonFiles\InstallShield\Professional\RunTime\0701\Intel32\DotNetInstaller.exe I get as far as "Installshield" and find that there is no "Professional".

When I search files and folders I get an error message that C:\ProgramFiles\CommonFiles\InstallShield\Professional\RunTime\0701\Intel32\DotNetInstaller.exe does not exist and that it is an invalid folder.

Any ideas what I might do from here.

Thanks for your suggestion, I've already solved this problem.

C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield\Professional\RunTime\0700\Intel32

the problem is gone.

Solution:
This message can safely be ignored. InstallShield is not really trying to use the file DotNetInstaller.exe without .NET Framework being installed. The DotNetInstaller.exe file is merely cached in the engine location for future use.
