The original poster inquires about uninstalling or disabling .NET Framework v4.8, questioning whether uninstalling it will revert to earlier versions or remove all v4.* versions, and if disabling is possible. The response advises that there’s generally no need to uninstall .NET 4.x versions since they can run alongside older .NET versions, implying that disabling may be a better approach if needed. Overall, the discussion suggests that maintaining multiple .NET versions concurrently is typical, and uninstalling is usually unnecessary.

How can I uninstall an existing .NET v4.8?

Does uninstalling .NET v4.8 automatically install the previous version .NET v4.7 or .NET v4.5
or does it uninstall ALL v4.* versions?

Is there a way to just disable but not completely uninstall all .NET v4.* versions?

.NET v3.* should be the last accessible .NET version

There's no reason to remove it. dotNET 4.X can run side by side with all 1.x 2.x and 3.x versions
