Microsoft Silverlight

| Posted on by



When I try to install, it prompts me to install 'Silverlight 5 Developer Runtime' first. I have already installed 'Silverlight 5 Runtime' (Not developer) and Silverlight 5 SDK on the server. So I am searching for Silverlight 5 Developer Runtime, and I could not find any link to download it on Microsoft Web Site. Uninstall Microsoft Silverlight. Microsoft Silverlight does not work as expected. Attempts to restart the computer and try to upgrade, install or uninstall Microsoft Silverlight again end in the same results. This issue can occur if an existing installation or uninstall has become corrupt. To automatically uninstall Microsoft Silverlight, click the button in the 'Fix it for me' section.
