asked on

uninstall previous versions of .NET Framework

I have a server running out of disk space on the OS/boot C drive. Can I uninstall the older versions of .NET framework? These are the versions listed in add/remove programs:
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 Service Pack 2
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1

Is it safe to remove 2.0 and 3.0 and leave 3.5?

This is a Windows Server 2003 running SQL2005 and IIS.

Thanks.

3.0 and 2.0 are basically the same as 3.5...i.e. 3.5 has everything in it need to run 2.0 and 3.0 programs...but you should definitely keep 1.1

1.1 isn't listed as installed on my machine.
also read over this forum...

http://forum.soft32.com/windows/NET-Framework-ftopict385573.html

it explains it in better detail...
then that means you're not running any 1.1 developed projects and don't need it...
