Microsoft .NET 4.7.2 (or later) Mandatory for Octopus Windows Client (WinUI) and for the Octopus task server or on a local environnment

Before installing the Octopus Windows client or the server, the Microsoft .NET 4.7.2 component must first be deployed in order to use the application.

These prerequisites apply to the client workstations in your environment, whether you are in hosted or on-premises mode, as well as to your Octopus application server if you are in on-premises mode.
However, pay particular attention to the automation server used for your integration tasks (MailIntegration, ADSI, WMI, etc.), as it uses an Octopus Windows client.
