Net Framework

[Edward W. Thompson]

Due to problems I have uninstalled Net Framework v1, 1.1., 2 and 3 and have
reinstalled version 2 only. Do I need, or rather would it be sensible to
reinstall versions 1 and 1.1 or does version 2 cover all eventualities. I
haven't found anything in either the MS knowledge base and Google on the
subject.

The NET Framework is Progressive, not cumulative. In other words v3
does not replace v2 nor v1.1. You can download and install 1.1, but if all is
working well at present, leave it alone. This is where the old adage applies,
"Don't fix it if it don't need fixing".

Download details: .NET Framework Version 1.1 Redistributable Package

AFAIK , each one is separate , but you will find out if you use a
program and it asks for one in particular .

They are separate. A newer version does not replace an earlier one. If
you try to run a program that needs an earlier one, it will fail.

It's your choice. You can install them all now, so you will have
whatever you need if you ever want to run such a program, or you can
wait until you need it.
