I'm not a developer. I need Net framework

I'm running out of disk space.  NET Framework has been installed several years ago, and I can't determine if nothing else I use needs this program.

The different versions of the .NET Framework (and no, they aren't "versions" in the sense that you can necessarily get rid of those earlier) are installed when you install an application that relies on them.  If you uninstall one of the .NET frameworks, some application relies on it will stop working and complain about the next time that you try to use this application.  Of course, you may have uninstalled the application, so you won't know if you have a problem until you actually have a problem.

In any case, here's my answer canned on a low disk space:

There are a number of things you can do to- temporarily - free up disk space.  The only real solution, however, is to get a bigger internal hard drive.   You can move the data to an external drive, but if it's the data that you use frequently, slower access times may annoy you.  Therefore, I do not recommend that you move your My Documents folder in its entirety on an external drive, but you can certainly do this by following the related instructions.

  • You can run Disk Cleanup (start > run > cleanmgr > OK)
  • You can reduce the size allocated for the restoration of the system to about 1 GB (right click on desktop > properties > system restore > settings)
  • You can disable hibernation (if you don't use it) (right click on an empty spot on the desktop > properties > screen saver > power > Hibernate)
  • You can disable the indexing of the drive, which will also speed up your computer a bit (http://lifehacker.com/031440/turn-off-indexing-and-speed-up-windows-xp)
  • You can reduce the size of your Internet browser cache (depending on the browser that you use)
  • You can remove most of the $NTUninstallKBxxxxxx files $ following the directions here: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Hotfix_backup.htm (read the warnings in the gray box first)
  • See also (which repeat some of the above):

" How to recover disk space on Windows Server 2008 and Windows XP computers? ."

" Forty ways to free disk space ."

But none of these answers you will earn really large amounts of space for very long.  The term solution time is a bigger hard drive.

In the meantime, download and run JDiskReport, that will show you graphically what files take up more space and seem to so indicate what files you can delete or move to an external drive.  If you want to move an application, you will need to uninstall and then reinstall it specifying your external drive as the installation location.  You can not simply move the files.

    Hello

    Windows Xp Sp3

    Procedure of common windows update wants to install update KB953297 security

    Updated download and inilialises, but refuses to install.

    What's wrong?

    What is the solution?

    Keith Keith

    Thanks Adamjy12345!  Amazing!  After spending a whole day with MS support yesterday, January 27, 2010 and getting nowhere, I followed your suggestion today and it seems that my troubles with the issue of the kb953297 are more.  I just rebooted and checked, and this time I have not asked me to update .net framework (953297 KB).

    I don't I remember exactly what I've done since the shock of seeing "installed successfully" hit me.  However, for others, I say lets find the netfx files after you run the dotnetfx.exe first the search option of windows classic.  Research others (I am running windows XP PRO) does not work, because I believe that it does not immediately again locate files.  Also, I do not see the file named netfx.msi when I did the search.

    Wait now, new information appears: my memory starts to come back, and I think remember me that * NPD1 * successfully completed the second time I tried without me having to tell her where the * netfx files were; so NDP1.sp1 - KB953297 - X 86 .exe found the files there without my help, even though I've never actually seen the netfx.msi file location!  I hope you have the same chance.  Don't forget to run dotnetfx.exe first, then run the NDP*.exe file at least twice, if it doesn't work the first time.  I know it's illogical, but well, these things are too complicated for me to describe with precision.

    p.s., Adam - I don't know how "mark you' but of course you deserve.
    Update - I've tagged you 6 to 7.  Hope it's what you mean. (Jan 28/10 @ 1115hrs.)
    Greetings to all.

    To successfully install the update, uninstall all versions of the .NET Framework on the computer, and then reinstall all the versions of the .NET Framework on the computer. You may need to work through more than one of the following methods.

    Method 1: Manually remove and reinstall .NET Framework

    To remove and reinstall .NET Framework manually, follow these steps:

    1. remove the .NET Framework.

    a. Click Start and then click Control Panel.

    b. double-click Add or remove programs.

    c. Note each version of the .NET Framework is already installed on the computer. Then, uninstall all versions of the .NET Framework.

    d. When you are prompted, restart the computer.

    2. use the Windows Installer CleanUp utility to clean up the State of MSI database for all versions of the .NET Framework.

    .      Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. The following file is available for download from the Microsoft Download Center: http://download.microsoft.com/download/e/9/d/e9d80355-7ab4-45b8-80e8-983a48d5e1bd/msicuu2.exe

    a. install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility as an administrator or a user account that is a member of the local Administrators group.

    b. Click Start, point to all programs and then click Windows Installer Cleanup.

    (c) in the Windows Installer CleanUp utility, remove all Windows Installer for the .NET Framework applications.

    3. restart the computer.

    4. download and reinstall all the versions of the .NET Framework that were previously installed on the computer.
    To download .NET Framework 3.5, visit the following Microsoft Web site:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=333325FD-AE52-4e35-B531-508D977D32A6&displaylang=en (5. When you are prompted, restart the computer.

    Note When you have reinstalled all the versions of the .NET Framework, you can use Windows Update to check for the updates of the .NET Framework.

    Method 2: Use the .NET Framework automatic cleanup tool

    This tool is not designed as a substitute for the standard uninstall procedure. You should try to perform an uninstall by following the steps in method 1, earlier in this article, before using this cleanup tool.

    The .NET Framework cleanup tool removes the .NET Framework for you. For more information about how to obtain and use this tool, visit the following MSDN Web site:

    http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2006/05/30/611355.aspx

    Note that this cleanup tool deletes shared files and the registry keys that are used by several versions of the .NET Framework. To ensure that all versions of the .NET Framework work correctly, if you run the cleanup tool to remove the .NET Framework, you must first remove all installed versions of the .NET Framework using this cleanup tool. Then, you must reinstall all previously installed versions, starting with the version number the lowest.

    Suppose you have the .NET Framework 1.1 and .NET Framework 2.0 installed on your computer, and you plan to use this cleanup tool. In this scenario, you use the cleanup tool to remove the .NET Framework 1.1 first and then use the cleanup tool to remove the .NET Framework 2.0. After you remove the two versions, you reinstall .NET Framework 1.1 and then install the .NET Framework 2.0, in that order.

  • Net Framework 4.0 installation

    If I install the last NET 4 it replaces all others or do I still need net framework 1.0 1.1 2.0 3.0 and 3.5 do I have to have all of them in order of running .net programs. This has always confused me and I end up having several different versions and service packs for .NET Framework is installed. Which ones should I really just run .net programs.

    Hello

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.
    Installation of .net Framework 4.0 is not install all previous versions also. You must install all previous versions individually, if any program needs. For example. installation of .net Framework 4.0 does not solve the need for .net Framework 2.0; You need to install .net framework 2.0 separately. In addition, there is no restriction in the method of installation of .net Framework (that is, install the lower version, then install the highest version), but you can install any version at any time.
    Service packs are essential as they are updated (for the most part, security) to existing versions.
