The EXE files are intended for easy and automatic installation of a product. The EXE installs the suite on your computer to a folder named Telerik in your Program Files, automatically creating the necessary virtual folders and projects. Additionally, it installs the help file(s) in the VS.NET IDE and in your local copy of MSDN, if you have one installed.

The EXE files are best for first-time Telerik users and ASP.NET novices.

The latest package available for download already has all updates/HOTFIXES applied. There is no need to update it further.
The EXE installation will not overwrite previous Telerik RadControls for ASP.NET installations, unless it is of the same version.

Install with Internet Information Services (IIS) Running

To install Telerik RadControls for ASP.NET on your machine from the EXE file, follow the instructions below:

  1. Log into your Client.NET account.
  2. Go to My Licenses and click My Purchases (or My Free Trials if you are a trial user).
  3. Click Telerik RadControls for ASP.NET.
  4. Go to the Download tab and download the Automatic installation (EXE) file.
  5. Once the download completes, run the RadControls EXE file and follow the instructions.

    The wizard will install the Telerik RadControls for ASP.NET component in the following folder unless you specify otherwise:
    C:\Program Files\Telerik\RadControlsQ2 2008.

The wizard will create the necessary virtual folders.

To view live examples of the Telerik RadToolBar functionality, you can launch the Quick-Start Framework in either of the following ways:

  • Open Start Menu -> Programs -> Telerik -> RadControls Q2 2008 for ASP.NET  -> ASP.NET 2.X -> RadControls Q2 2008 C#/VB Live Examples,
  • Double-click the LiveExamplesCS or LiveExamplesVB file located in C:\Program Files\Telerik\RadControlsQ2 2008\NET2,
  • or drag the LiveExamplesCS or LiveExamplesVB file located in C:\Program Files\Telerik\RadControlsQ2 2008\NET2 to start the examples in your browser.

Install without Internet Information Services (VS 2005 only)

To install Telerik RadControls on your machine from the EXE file, follow the instructions below:

  1. Log in your Client.NET account.
  2. Go to My licenses and click My Purchases (or My Free Trials if you are a trial user).
  3. Click Telerik RadControls for ASP.NET.
  4. Go to the Download tab to download the Automatic installation (EXE) file.
  5. Once the download completes, run the RadControls EXE file and follow the instructions.

    C:\Program Files\Telerik\.

When Internet information Services is not running, the product installation will NOT create virtual directories for the QSF, nor will it create any shortcuts for launching the QSF on localhost. To launch the Quick-Start framework, open and Run (Ctrl+F5) its VisualStudio Web Site using the provided shortcut in the Start Menu:
Start Menu -> Programs -> Telerik -> RadControlsQ2 2008 for ASP.NET-> ASP.NET 2.X -> Open Sample Web Site in Visual Studio
VisualStudio 2005 will start the QSF locally using the integrated ASP.NET Development Server.

The Telerik RadControls for ASP.NET package adds the products automatically to the VS.NET 2005 toolbox. To learn how to add them manually, see Adding Telerik RadToolBar to the Visual Studio 2005 Toolbox.
