WIX Burn Bootstrapper, installing .net framework as payload
What I want to do:
Make a wix burn bundle bootstrapper that 1st installs the .net 4.8 framework if necessary and then after that, install our custom MSI the custom MSI is all good and working.
I want a single file, which I understand will be 100,000 K big and we're fine with that (once you package in the .net 4.8 installer)
Then just have the bootstrapper auto unpackage and run the .net framework install if needed, but everything I've tried doesn't work. Either it wants to download it (we don't want to count on internet access), or a Open File Dialog shows wanting to get pointed to the .net framework install.
all code below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<Wix
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wix/2006/wi">
<Bundle
Name="OurSoftwareName"
Version="1.0.0.0"
Manufacturer="Our Company name"
UpgradeCode="deleted guid here so no one accidentally uses it">
<BootstrapperApplicationRef
Id="WixStandardBootstrapperApplication.RtfLicense" />
<!--
<PayloadGroup Id="NetFx48RedistPayload">
<Payload Name="redist\ndp48-x86-x64-allos-enu.exe"
SourceFile=".\Files\ndp48-x86-x64-allos-enu.exe"/>
</PayloadGroup>
-->
<Chain>
<PackageGroupRef
Id="NetFx48RedistPayload" />
<MsiPackage
After="NetFx48Redist"
SourceFile="$(var.ReferenceToOurMsi.Setup.TargetPath)" />
</Chain>
</Bundle>
</Wix>
And I've copied and altered the .net 4.8 version of wix code from and made some customizations:

I never found this this on any google hunts, but apparently setting the compressed to "yes" was the key, and no need for a payload when doing that. Worked exactly as I want at this point. Single (large) file and auto-extracts and runs.
