I'm considering converting a fairly successful VB 6 app over to .NET. While I vaguely remember reading somewhere in the .NET docs that you need to install some additonal software to run .NET apps on Win98 and WinME clients; I can't recall anything about Win95 clients.

Do you need to install additional software on the Win95 client machines in order for them to run my VB.NET apps?

Thanks...

I have nothing of the sort either, but as it is as it is with 98/ME a fair guess would be that that the same rules apply to 95 as its prior to the others.

Open your help file and search 'windows 95' I get 41 topics and a lot of them will help you with your question from installer to accesability issues

Actually, you must make sure the framework files are available on any machine you install on (just like the JRE for java). Also, since Microsoft has dropped support for Windows 95, no framework files are available for that version of windows. This means that you can only run a .NET application on:
Win98/ME/NT/2000/XP (so long as the framework files are present).
