Re: Setup file looking for wrong .NET framework.

Hello asadikhan@xxxxxxxxx,

Use <supportedRuntime> attribute of the config file to specify required version

I had v1.0, v1.1 and v2.0 of .NET framework installed on my laptop and
that was causing me a lot of grief. So I uninstalled v2.0 and pressed
on with developing stuff in v1.0. Everything was great. I wrote a
whole application. After completion I added a setup project. The setup
project builds fine. But when I try to install the application, it
gives me an error saying "This setup requires .NET framework." (Please
install it). I checked the Windows Event Viewer and it shows the
following error message which clearly shows that the setup file is
trying to look for v2.0 of dotnet framework. How do I make it look for
the correct version.

(Oh and I didn't uninstall v2.0 properly; I renamed the folder a few
weeks back, and then forgot about it. When I uninstalled v2.0 using
Add/Remove Programs v2.0 disappeared from the Add/Remove Programs
list, but the renamed folder is still sitting there :S).

It's the problem, because renaming of folder don't remove .net fw - there are some libraries in the system that don't correspond to you removed folder.
I recomend you to read my article about CLR intantiating to understand how you app stars and determinate which version of .NET to use
