Show full user interface when installing .NET Framework

If you select this check box, the Microsoft .NET Framework (English) Setup wizard appears when dotnetfx.exe installs the .NET Framework on the target system. This wizard shows the progress of the .NET Framework installation.

If you clear this check box, the InstallShield Wizard appears when dotnetfx.exe installs the .NET Framework on the target system. This InstallShield Wizard shows the progress of the .NET Framework installation.

Delay requested .NET reboots until after your installation

Select this check box to delay any prompts to reboot until after the installation is finished. The .NET Framework may not function until after this reboot. Therefore, it is strongly recommended that you not select this check box if the .NET Framework is used during the installation.
