Summary: Frequently Asked Questions about Windows Presentation Foundation

Q. What's the minimum software requirements to run Windows Presentation Foundation?
A. WPF runs on Windows XP Service Pack 2, Windows Server 2003 or Windows Vista. DirectX 9.0c is also required to be installed, and Windows Media Player 10 is recommended for the best experience.

Q. How is Windows Presentation Foundation distributed?
A. WPF is included with Windows Vista out of the box. For Windows XP Service Pack 2 and Windows Server 2003, the runtime can be downloaded as part of .NET Framework 3.0 If you have Internet Explorer 7 installed, WPF will (with your consent) automatically download the first time you browse to a page with an .XBAP or .XAML extension. Finally, many applications that rely on WPF will also distribute it as part of the installer.
