Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1 (KB110806) Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 Service Pack 1 (KB929300) Thanks.

Whichever ones the manufacturer of decided to utilize the .NET Framework... In other words - it can be anything - you'd have to look at the system requirements of the software to know. .NET Framework 1.1 .NET Framework 2.0 .NET Framework 3.0 .NET Framework 3.5  SignatureShenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html Thank you kindly. What are some common applications that do require the .NET Framework? Does it make the OS more "complete", "powerful" or "secure" to have all these installed: > .NET Framework 1.1 > .NET Framework 2.0 > .NET Framework 3.0 > .NET Framework 3.5 DSH >> Which applications require it? > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > .NET Framework 3.0 > .NET Framework 3.5 >> Which applications require it? > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > Shenan Stanley > MS-MVP Normally any installation that needs either of those will tell you so at install time and probably is indicated in the docs for that program. But once it's installed there is little you can do to be sure one of them is installed with it. If you have none of those and everything works well and nothing is asking for one of those, then you don't need them. If you're trying to figure out what's useing the one/s you already have, try renaming their folder name to make them un-findable and see if any programs complain that it's missing. If it's needed, the program needing it should plainly state so in an error message, or will at least quit working. In which case name the folder back of course. When I rename such folders, I usually put a "-" in fron tof the name; makes them float to the top of an alpha listing in Explorer so they're easy to find. HTH Yes, it does help. Thank you kindly. I have installed them all except 3.5 -- using a belt and suspenders approach, which is probably overkill. Do some of the common MS applications use them? That would seem to be eminently logical.

The .NETs are more for support of software developers who write programs, sometimes rather complex, such as CADD software, some Video applications, things like that. Sometimes it bugs me because you think you're getting this neat little program that takes hardly any disk space, and then they turn around and tell you to get this huge .NET variant to make their program work<g>. Don't get me wrong; it's the way to do it, but ... still ... . HTH Pop` Very Enlightening... THAT is what I was trying to get at -- which sort of programs require them. Thank you.
