my favorite: go to start=>run and type msiexec
but you can also try:

Hi, still no luck.
I installed the client profile again and verified the xp sp3 is installed.
still under the path:
"C:\Program Files\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\ "
I get only v3 and v3.5.
and the path "C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319" does exist.
under my app.config the definition is
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/>

so I assume I can be sure that my deployed app is actually using the v4.0 and not an earlier version-right?..

1)right click on your project and serach for properties ->building->advanced to see waht framework you're really targetting.

2) aside -quite sure it is not your case - , a known issue is: if path is too long (over 250 chars) you will have matter installing

Thank you everybody. problem is solved. I decided to install the full version(dotNetFx40_Full_setup.exe ) instead of dotNetFx40_Client_setup and it works.
