hey guys i m just curios to know what is best . i just have learn vb.net which is rather easy and power full but its backwardness is it is not standalone. it requires Microsoft .net framework.

i seen many of the best softwares like internet download manager.

Firefox, vlc media player, Google chorme or any others are standalone and professionally coded among them 50 % of sofware can be open and seen by resource hacker. if i am not wrong they are build in c++ but i dont know how ?. is there is any way to do it just like from visual studio . just dropping buttons, images, combobox etc in form?

i want to know how they can make it or what is the best for standalone software development ?

thanks in advance

You've already asked this before. Shall we waste time answering again if you just ignore all the answers given just like last time, where you ended up using VB anyway? (I deleted my answer last time as you ignored it just like the others).

Topic closed. Use the old one, if someone still wants to answer...
