Windows 7 .net framework problem

[Steve Stacey]

Hi All

Trying to run software which needs 4.5. I check my status with regedit and this shows various versions 3. 3.5 and 4.0. When I then try and instal from Microsoft, the installer states I already have an equivalent or superior version installed etc.

Can someone help me get out of this vicious circle?

Thanks for your time.

Does it show up under Control Panel > Programs and Features?

Thanks. Yep it shows 4.6.1. (Odd that it doesn't show like that in regedit). I suppose I'd have to uninstall and then install 4.5 if the said prog is so fussy?

Thanks again.

4.6.1 contains 4.5 4.5.1 4.5.2, 4.6 and 4.6.1 in it. What are you trying to install? My guess is the installer has a primitive way for checking for 4.5

Not necessarily. Let me know what program it is, I'm sure there's a way to trick it.

Thanks. The prog is one which allows you to manipulate various video game files. I'll uninstall and reinstall just 4.5 and see what that does.

Thanks again.

Installed 4.5 and still getting "unhandled" exception error" when running prog.

Thanks anyway.
