In this write-up, we will focus on installing .NET Framework 5.2 (note that .NET Framework 5.2 does not exist as .NET Framework reached its final version 4.8, and .NET 5 and later versions are part of the .NET Core and .NET 6+ family) but actually guide on .NET Framework 4.8 or similar, using an offline installer.
