Installing Visual C# 2005 Express Edition without internet connection?

First you need to download Visual C# and Visual C++ CD image files here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/express/aa718401....

Then you can either burn the image files into a CD or by using a CD emulation program like Daemon Tools (download DT from: http://www.filehippo.com/download_daemon_tools/ ).

If you're asked to register, you may be able to copy the link Visual Express have opened to another computer (copy the link to Notepad, save the file to a flashdisk or floppy, open the link in another computer that have an internet connection). Complete the registration on that other computer and copy back the registration code to the computer with Visual Studio.

You can install just about every software without internet connection--however, some software licenses do require registration in order to be activated. So if you have a software requiring activation online then you can install it but not use it until you registered it.

There are only two cases.

Either you have to register the software before it can be activated which means you have to connect to the manufacturers website--there's usually an option to skip this step and continue--

Or, that the software receives updates from the manufacturer as part of the installation requirement before it can be activated and run, which also means you must be online.

In other words, unless you can postpone registration, there is no workaround.

If you need to download Daemon Tools you can get it for free here http://j.mp/1wDlsbI

Daemon Tools is surely the best CD drive emulator that you can find.

Some people really shouldn't have computers. Really.
