.NET Framework

Vargulf · 2010-09-23 17:22:16

Hi, I have a quick question; I have .Net Framework 2.0 and 3.0 SP2 but I also have 3.5 SP1. I haven't a clue what they are for, but all I know is that the 2.0 and 3.0 are taking up a lot of space. So basically is it safe to delete 2.0 and 3.0? Thanks.

I wouldn't advise it, unless you're really stuck for space. There are some stupid interdependencies between different versions of .NET, so removing some without removing all of them can cause issues with any software you use that depends on any given component.
