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.

Event Type:    Error
Event Source:    .NET Runtime
Event Category:    None
Event ID:    0
Date:        06/06/2006
Time:        3:32:02 PM
User:        N/A
Computer:    MIRSCP56579
Description:
The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( .NET Runtime ) cannot be
found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry
information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote
computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this
description; see Help and Support for details. The following
information is part of the event: Shim database version
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727 doesn't have a matching
runtime directory.

(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).

Hello asadik***@gmail.com,

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

Show quoteHide quoteIt'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
