Re: ?for an MVP regarding dot Net updates recieved today repeating themselves?



Thank you Jim and Maincat: for your replies; hopefully one of the MVPs out
there will have run into this and have further data on it.
The machine has been rebooted several times (I always reboot after an
install to verify things seem stable)
and from what was said; I will not uninstall any of the .NET versions.
I will note that even on shutdown it has said it was installing on at least
two ocaisions and I saw no error then either;
but when it comes back up; the yellow/gold update shield will come back and
it's for the same updates again.

Thanks for the replies! Regards
to all, Dallas...

This afternoon my XP Home machine brought in security updates for .NET
The update claimed succesfull/completed no errors showing.
Now I keep getting the update shield and same updates again.

Machine is XPH SP2 and on auto update and I check for custom updates
manually as well every few weeks. Prior to this I was fully up to date
with no updates outstanding. This showed up today 7/10/07 at around
2:15pmish EST
System has been stable for many months and still appears to be.
Processor is AMD Athlon XP+1800 768MB ram.

Below is what seems relavent in Add Remove programs that may shed some
light on this I hope!

Add Remove Programs shows .NET Framework 1.0
Add Remove Programs shows .NET Framework 1.1
Add Remove Programs shows .NET Framework 2.0
Add Remove Programs shows .NET Framework 3.0

All of these appear to be installed; there is also a hotfix installed for
1.1

I'm thinking I need to Uninstall some of these except for 3.0 perhaps??
I will note: I did a custom update once today after this started and I
saw 3.0 update come through. 3.0 does not seem to be repeating like 1.x

Below is the cut and paste of the installation text happening for 1.x
I'm on OE set to plain text posting this but it looks tiny here so
I apologize if it is not plain text; Format says it is; but my eyes
question that.
I will note that manual express install from tools-> windows update
yields the same.
Initializing installation... done!

Installing Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 1.0
Service Pack 3 (KB928367) (update 1 of 2)... done!

Installing Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 1.1
Service Pack 1 (KB928366) (update 2 of 2)...

I'm thinking that everything but 3.0 should be removed is this safe to
do?

Thanks for any suggestions on this; I did not want to just go
uninstalling the stuff...


Thank you very much! Regards, Dallas...


I am not an MVP either, but the answer to your question is no. It seems
that the various versions of the .NET framework offer different features,
and
one does not supercede any of the previous ones.
