Crystal Report 2005 Setup 1.0

Crystal Report 2005 Setup Developer: Paradigm Shift KK

Overview
Crystal Report 2005 Setup by Paradigm Shift KK is a streamlined installer utility designed to deploy the Crystal Reports 2005 runtime and required prerequisites on Windows systems. It helps developers and IT administrators support legacy .NET and Visual Studio 2005 applications that rely on Crystal Reports, ensuring consistent report rendering across development, test, and production environments.

Key features

• Guided and silent installation: Supports interactive setup and standard unattended/silent install parameters for automated rollouts.
• Prerequisite checks: Detects common dependencies for Crystal Reports 2005–based applications (such as the .NET Framework 2.0/3.5 and relevant data access components) and prompts for installation if missing.
• Consistent runtime configuration: Installs and configures the Crystal Reports 2005 runtime to match application expectations, reducing “missing component” and version mismatch errors.
• Logging and rollback: Generates installation logs to aid troubleshooting and supports rollback on failure to maintain system stability.
• Enterprise-friendly: Suitable for deployment via software distribution tools and group policies in managed Windows environments.

Compatibility

• Intended for Windows platforms commonly used with .NET Framework 2.0–3.5 and Visual Studio 2005–era applications.
• Works with x86 applications and is compatible with modern 64-bit Windows in 32-bit mode, when organizational policies allow legacy components.
• Best used with applications built against Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2005–era assemblies.

Typical use cases

• Preparing client and server machines for legacy line-of-business applications that generate Crystal Reports.
• Standardizing developer workstations to ensure report designs and previews match production.
• Enabling IT teams to automate runtime deployment during imaging or application updates.

Installation notes

• Administrative rights are required.
• Close reporting and office applications before installation.
• For unattended deployments, use standard silent install switches supported by your software distribution tooling.
• If your environment disables the .NET 3.5 feature on newer Windows versions, enable it as needed for legacy application support.
