Windows Vista .net framework 3.5 on vista problem

[chrisharp03]

hi, when trying to install vs2008 on vista it installed .net framework 3.5 but it didnt install properly i dont think so i want to uninstall and install again using the program download from microsoft.

however when i try to uninstall .net framework 3.5 it crashes and says:

"suite integration toolkit has stopped working" then it closes.

so does any1 know how to get rid of this dodgy version of .net framework 3.5?????????

Hi!! Have you seen the Web Post "Aaron Stebner's Weblog: Automated clean-up tool to remove the .net???? It covers 3.5 and he has an e-mail, which I would definitely use before using his tool. blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2006/05/30/611355.aspx

I had the same install error when putting .Net 3.5 on a vista machine. The result was that all userids on the machine lost authority to do anything (couldn't even open Notepad).

Luckily, I could still log on in Safe Mode and use System Restore to back out to a previous restore point.

Hi! That's interesting..... I wonder why he doesn't mention anything like that? He apparently has full or at least partial use of his computer. It crashed and then came back....What's better ? Tool or Restore ?
