12/28/2013


The .NET Framework is a software framework developed by Microsoft that runs primarily on Microsoft Windows. It was released by Microsoft in 2003. Since then many versions of the dot net framework have been released by Microsoft starting from version 1.0. The latest version of .net framework is version 4.5.1.

During all these years, dot net framework has evolved into a robust and versatile software development framework. Each time a new version is released by Microsoft, you should upgrade to the latest version as it will be helpful for other software installations on your system (like printer drivers). If you have a version of dot net framework installed on your system and you want to install or upgrade to the latest or newer version of .net framework on your system, you may like to know the current version already installed on your system.
Here is one of the simple ways to get the details of the .net framework version(s) installed on your system.
  • Press Windows + R keys on your keyboard to stat the run dialog box.
  • Type regedit.exe to open the windows Registry Editor.
  • Open the following subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP
The list of installed version(s) is given under the NDP subkey.
