So, correct me if I'm wrong, .NET framework is sort of an interface between 3rd

'understand' the inner workings of 'Windows'.

Can someone explain (in plain english) what .NET framework is/does and why

I

should install it even though this computer is working fine without it.

I have had a read of MS's 'what is .NET framework' which seemed to be

vague &

unspecific and left me none the wiser.
