In short, yes.
Do I need still need older versions of the .NET Framework on my system after installing .NET Framework 3.5 SP1? http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archi...0/9557946.aspx -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Client - since 2002 www.banthecheck.com weeblzwabl wrote: hi all. just a question. in my computer I have the following: .net framework 1.1 - .net framework 2.0 service pack 2 - 184 mb .net framework 3.0 service pack 3 - 179 mb .net framework 3.5 sp 1 - 28 mb do i need all 4 of them ?? have an older computer and it's starting to run slow, was wondering if i need both of the large framework programs. thankx |

Unless you are short of free space, these have nothing to do with running
slow "weeblzwabl" wrote in message ... hi all. just a question. in my computer I have the following: .net framework 1.1 - .net framework 2.0 service pack 2 - 184 mb .net framework 3.0 service pack 3 - 179 mb .net framework 3.5 sp 1 - 28 mb do i need all 4 of them ?? have an older computer and it's starting to run slow, was wondering if i need both of the large framework programs. thankx |

These are all optional software. You only need a particular one if a
program needs it to operate. For example, TurboTax needs net framework 2. I don't know of a comprehensive list of which programs need which version(s). Thus, I just load them all. If your computer is running slow (very subjective), it is very unlikely that the presence on disk of any or all of them is the root cause.

No, they're not. If you don't have an application installed that doesn't
need, e.g., .NET Framework 3.5, it wouldn't be installed and you wouldn't be offer Service Packs or security updates for that version at Microft Update. Jim wrote: These are all optional software... |

DL,
Actually, you aren't quite correct in what you say because Framework 2.0 has something running which actually slows machines down. It's supposed to catalogue things etc then exit. On slower machines it can take over 20 mins... On Technet is a way of removing this collection -- SPAMCOP User "DL" wrote in message ...

PA Bear
What are you talking about? ..NET Framework 3.5 comes down in Windows Update & doesn't just get installed if you have an application using it. If you have a WSUS server then you can decline the update removing it if it exists... This version of Framework is for those applications coded in it (ex. Visual Studio 2008 applications use 3.5 as default). With Visual Studio 2010 it uses .NET Framework 4.0 as default but you can code in 3.5... too Maybe PA Bear with your answer you need to look up bootstappers on MSDN to get a little knowledge on the subject. And maybe this is why you are a MVP in IE because you definately have no idea of anything else & I doubt IE too. You need reporting to: because you really have no idea -- SPAMCOP User "PA Bear [MS MVP]" wrote in message ... No, they're not.
