Re: ASP.Net 2.0 Uninstall

Thank you for your post.

My original problem is that I cannot uninstall with the control panel.

I have detailed the actual issue in the first message in this thread.

I appreciate iny info you have on manually unistalling the Framework.

That is not the correct install path.

The correct install path is :

C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727

Try uninstalling the .Net Framework 2.0, and reinstalling it to the
correct directory.

You should be able to uninstall it via "Start Button", "Settings",
"Control Panel" and "Add or Remove Programs".

If the .Net Framework 2.0 isn't listed there, I can give you instructions
on how to remove it manually, but first check to see if you can instruct
it through the "add or Remove" Control Panel applet.

After you do that... reinstall it, after a reboot.

Thanks again. Installed all files to
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Microsoft .NET Framework
2.0

Still getting same result.

Was that what you were suggesting? Refreshing all files from the package
to the directory?

Sorry, its "dotnetfx.exe /C"
-- the MSI will be in the folder you've specified.

Thanks Peter.

I downloaded the dotnetfx.exe file and as soon as I started it I got
the
exact same response that I've already detailed.

Thanks for trying!

Steve

I think we might be confusing "ASP.NET 2.0" with the .NET Framework
2.0,
which "includes" ASP.NET 2.0 here.

A simple google search will find the download as the very first item
in
the
search results:

http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&q=.NET+Framework+2.0+Download

If you think your issue is something that requires an install, you
can
just
try reinstalling the framework first without doing an uninstall. It
may
prompt you to "repair" - I don't remembers. Otherwise, there are
command
line
switches that will extract the missing .msi file you talk about.

I have a problem with ASP.Net 2.0 that I think needs a re-install.
When
I
go to the control panel and try to uninstall, the Microsoft .Net
Framework
2.0 Setup dialog comes up and tells me the wizard is about to guide
me
through the installation process. As soon as I hit next I get a
brief
screen that is asking me to agree to a license agreement but before
I can
chek the box it flashes to the next screen and tells me:

The folling error occurred during setup:

The installation package or a needed file could not be opened.
Verify
that
the package exists and that you can access it.

The only button I have is the Finish button.

I have tried to manually uninstall and reinstall ASP.Net 2.0 with
the
aspnet_regiis tool and that appears to work but the issue persists.
The
site using ASP.Net 2.0 also continues to work. The only reason I
noticed
the error in the first place was the machine's refusal to install a
security
patch to ASP.Net 2.0.

Can anyone direct me to either a fresh copy of the install package
and
instructions on how to replace it or possibly an ASP.Net cleaner
package
that will allow me to clean ASP.Net 2.0 from the system for a
re-install?

Thanks!

Steve
