Re: Detecting the Microsoft .NET CF

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Thanks for describing what values meen.

One more question.
Preinstalled .net on my device is 1.0.33.16.0 (SP2 as I understand). The one
that I installed is 1.0.2268.0. Now I can say that active is the first one.
Does this situation meen that device always uses the latest .net version
from given two or it is more compicated (on emutator in VS2005 there are both
..net cf v.1 and v.2, but active is still v.1)?
