How can I know what references I have used in my project?

Expand the "references " node in solution explorer.

Is it those under "All Components" in Object Browser?

Not sure - I don't use the Object Browser much.

How to remove them?

Select a reference and hit "Delete" IIRC.

I am going to downgrade my project from .NET Framework 3.5 to 2.0 by
changing TargetFramework to ".NET Framework 2.0" in Project Properties.
Howerver, the installer still ask the user has to install 3.5 first.

Hmm... not sure why that is. I'm not terribly knowledgeable about
installers.

Ehh, might be an idea to open the project file with notepad and delete
the references that way... (If you cant do it from the IDE)

RE: Remove v3.5 reference?

Is .Net 3.5 checked as a prerequisite in your setup project?

I have been fighting with the exact same isuue earlier today, and found
the solution to be two-fold:

1. View Editor Launch Conditions, select .NET Framework, set Version =
2.0.50727 in the property window.

2. Right-click setup project Properties, click the "Prerequisites. .."
button, check ".NET Framework 2.0 (x86)", uncheck ".NET Framework 3.5".

Hope this helps :)
