Guest Smirnoff Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 Trying to help a friend who is running XP Pro (SP3). In IE7, kept getting .NET Framework 2.0 runtime error. Tried repair and uninstall in Add/Remove but get "..encountered an error....". Tried in Safe Mode, same result. Obviously 2.0 is corrupt. Thought I'd try downloading Visual Studio 8 in order to get .NET 3.5 and any other missing files. It errored trying to install 3.5. Tried to install Windows Install Cleanup Utility but get error message: Windows script host: Script: c:\Documents~1\Admin~1\locals\temp\IXP000.tmp\startMsi.vbs. Line: 1 Char: 1 Error: ActiveX component can't create object: Scripting FileSystemObject. Code: 8000A01AD.

Guest Smirnoff Posted July 14, 2008 Posted July 14, 2008 Re: Cannot repair/uninstall .NET Framework 2.0 Aaron Stebner's .NET cleanup utility worked like a charm. Kept going back to MS Update until I had all the necessary .NET files plus all the SP's/Hotfixes.
