zoppz Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 HelloFirst time on the forum. I need to repair a .NET Framework 2.0 installtion on XP Pro. The repair process looks for netfx20a_x86.msi file, which is not installed on the machine and I can't find it. I serached on the web, there are a number places it it listed as available for download but forces you to register and pay. Don't mind paying if I have to but subcription pricing are not very transparent, e.g. one site say $0.65 per day minimum 3 days or $29.95 for lifetime. When tried to pay for 3 days, the payment screen bar on the lefthand side show total chagr $81.80 today. Another said $3.65 instead of $4.99, but final number came to $38.80.Please help find this file; link to location where I could download, if need to pay it there is a portal which is clear on charges upfront.Zoppz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joakim Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 You could try to download the installer from microsoft.com. I am rather sure they have it there available for no charge.Joakim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted March 24, 2010 Share Posted March 24, 2010 1. Download the 3.5 SP1 redist package:http://download.micr.../dotnetfx35.exe2. Extract the installer:dotnetfx35.exe /x:<folder>(where <folder> is the folder you want to extract the package to)I believe once you run that, the installer for 2.0 SP1 (netfx20a_X86.msi) will be in "<folder>\ext\wcu\dotNetFramework\dotNetFX20\".

I am not much familier with these thing so I need simple answer else I get lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
