Update for .NET 8.x or 9.x

[lp177344]

Morning,

.Net 6.x went end of life in November 2024.

Can we please get an update that includes support for .Net 8.x or .Net 9.x.

Thank you!

Just update build/version.props and change net6.0 to net8.0 the build the project, doesnt seem to be any breaking changes here.

However, seeing as it has been some time since anyone at MS has looked at this, I may produce an installer with various bugfixes and updates.

that would be a big help!

Didnt realize the installer did also need some changes for the upgrade to .net 8 (just a couple links and stuff)

I have built an installer you can find here

I have enabled issues on my fork, should you run into anything feel free to open one.

Thank you for posting an updated .NET 8 installer.

Currently when running the installer (also downloaded the source and built the installer manually) we are running into an error that is stopping the installation from finishing.

Does anyone have any ideas for how to get the .NET 8 version of the installer working successfully? This would really help us quite a bit.

There is an issues thread for this as well (kimboslice99#1).
