Q: I need a program that does not Vista.
Their support team says I should install. NET Framework 1.1 on vista.
Is it okay to install a previous version. Net on Vista? Will affect anying?
Best Answer: If it needs .NET framework 1.1, then you have to install the .NET Framework 1.1 if it is not installed EVEN if you have the .NET framework 2.0.
The post above me states that .NET 2.0 supersedes .NET 1.1 and will do whatever the framework V 1.1 does. THIS IS NOT TRUE!
If a program was developed against .NET framework 1.1, then it has to be installed on the machine where you wish to run the program (regardless of whether .NET 2.0 or .NET 3.0 are installed or not).
Hope this helps.
Re:This might be similar to installing games that need direct X 9. You would think Direct X 10 is completely backward compatible, which it probably is, but if during a game install, or 3D Mark install, it asks to install Direct X 9 and you say "no", the program won't work. I think (or maybe hope) that Vista is smart enough not to overwrite newer files, but maybe allow the registry settings to be changed to appease the program.
Re:Yeah you can install all three versions on Vista with no issues.
Re:I have 1.1 installed with no problems. One of my programs require it as well.
Re:That one I would like to see before I believe.

I stand corrected. Thanks guys.
It's the earlier .NET 2.0 versions that don't install.
I would still tell the monkeys to change their code
According to Microsoft's website you can install version 2 as well.

Re:Originally posted by: guy
Vista has version 3 installed.
That is correct.
The .NET Framework 3.0 is included as part of the Windows Vista? operating system; you can install it or uninstall it using Windows Features Control Panel. .

It won't work. Tell their support team that they are monkeys and that they need to change their code.
The .NET framework version in Vista is 2.0.50727.312
I think the latest non-Vista version is 2.0.50727.42 (as applied by the most recent update)
It is likely they are using an = instead of a >= on the .Net framework check:
PROPERTY_INCREMENT_VALUE_DOT_NET_2.0_INSTALLED
It does work,I have 1.1 installed on my Vista x64.

Re:but to answer your question… Yes, **IF** you could get it installed it would goof some things up. Very bad idea.
