1.0 corrupted, won't uninstall OR reinstall


1.0 corrupted, won't uninstall OR reinstall Doug

dotnet setup:

I'd like to install 1.1, but my 1.0 .NET installation
might be incomplete or corrupted. I tried to uninstall it
but it wanted to find a file called C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1
\LOCALS~1\Temp\IXP000.TMP\netflx.msi -- which doesn't
exist on my hard disk. Trying to reinstall version 1.0
doesn't work because it says ".NET Framework is already
installed" after it unpacks the relevant installation
files.

You don't need to uninstall 1.0 to use 1.1, it's not a replacement, so unless
you want only the 1.1 framework for some reason, leave 1.0 there.

As I mentioned, the 1.0 installation is incomplete or
corrupted, too. I'd be happy with either 1.0 or 1.1,
whichever I can ultimately get installed correctly. I just
need a path to get there.

It's impossible to know if it's corrupted or incomplete, but as far as I can
see, the main thing that's wrong is that you've lost the source MSI file from
which it was installed. This *might* mean something is broken, but I wouldn't
leap to that conclusion.

Since I cannot Uninstall, nor Reinstall the software, I
have to believe that something is out of whack. There are
components that it cannot find. It's at least a niggling
thing that I want to clear up, whether or not .NET version

While I'm not certain what's causing your problem, you could try repairing
your existing installation. Simply running the executable again will not
initiate a proper reinstall. Instead, try using the following command:

dotnetfx.exe /t:"%tmp%" /c:"msiexec.exe /fvecms %tmp%\netfx.msi"

This command will unpack the installation .msi into your account's temp
folder from the .exe package, and attempt to reinstall/repair your existing
..NET Framework 1.0 installation.
