Is it possible to develop a WinForms application which when deployed (of course on Windows) will not be dependent to .NET Framework? And How?
Okay, put it this way, I want all the dll’s and stuffs to be included in my application, so when installed in a machine, the users don’t have to install .NET Framework, something like that. Is it possible?
I don’t believe this is possible. You can however include the .NET client installer into the installer for your application:

There is an article on MSDN about redistribution of the .NET framework:
