Building a universal Windows 7/Windows 10 .NET EXE

The problem with building a .NET (classic) executable that runs on both clean Windows 7 install and on Windows 10 is that Windows 7 only ships with .NET 3.5 inbox and Windows 10 ships with .NET 4.X. A .NET 3.5 executable will not run on a (clean install) Windows 10 directly. It can be coerced to do so in multiple ways, but none of them are "worry-free single file" solutions (config file, registry settings, environment variables, etc.).

One of the solutions is to set COMPLUS_OnlyUseLatestCLR environment variable to 1 before the process starts. This will allow .NET 4.X to take over execution of the program. This still doesn't qualify as "worry-free" because we need a batch file or something else to set the envionment for us before the process start (it's too late once Main is executing).

One weird trick to run the same executable on both Windows 7 and Windows 10

When I said we need to set COMPLUS_OnlyUseLatestCLR environment variable to 1 bef
