Cannot Install .NET Framework 1.1 on Windows 7 64-bit

Question

I am installing .NET Framework 1.1 on a Windows 7 64-bit. I get the following error description:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

RegSvc.exe -- Common Language Runtime Debugging Services

Application has generated an exception that could not be handled.

Process id=0x1240 (4672), Thread id=0x458 (1112)

Click OK to terminate the application. Click CANCEL to debug the application

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am forced to choose the "OK" button since I don't understand how to debug it.

Please help how to successfully install this.

Hi AlvinVi,

You don't have to install .NET 1.1 in windows 7. .NET versions are shipped with windows 7. Can you please explain your purpose of installing it ?

Answer 2

Hi Rukshan,

I am installing a software that specifically asks for .NET Framework 1.1. Every time I get to run the app, I always get this prompt:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SomeApplication.exe - .NET Framework Initialization Error

To run this application, you first must install one of the following versions of the .NET Framework:

v1.1.4322

Would you like to download and install v1.1.4322 of the .NET Framework now?

[Yes] [No]

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If I click the button [Yes], it will redirect me to the download location of .NET Framework 1.1. I already did that, and the error from above occurs.

If I click the button [No], the application will exit and discontinue.

I have no choice but to install .NET Framework 1.1 if I need to use the application. :( I really need help on this one.
