What is Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 ? Should I have it?

[eljaycee]

I get an express update message about this .NET Framework.
It fails to get installed everytime I try. I am not able to uninstall it either.What do I do?

If you have Windows Vista, then no need to download as Vista comes loaded with .NET framework version 1.1,
If you are using Windows XP, it also comes loaded with .NET Framework 1.1,
Both do the needful work required for common use.
However if you want the latest version of .NET Framework 3.5, then download it from www.filehippo.com.
.NET Framework 2.0 is the older version.
Why you can not install it because it is already installed on your computer or your computer do not need this version.
Some how, try to install it from the above mentioned web site, if it installs then it is good, otherwise leave it as it is not going to do much difference to your computer as it is required by the professionals only not for common daily use.

just download it, like 40 programs won't work without it, and it makes computer easier to use (for me) no hacking required now to run programs.
