What are you talking about?  Where are you downloading from?

If you mean Windows Update, then everything Windows Update says you need SHOULD be downloaded and installed.  If you think you have unnecessary windows software, go to the appropriate control panel to remove the unnecessary programs and components.

Usually when you install updates for the .NET framework, the old versions stay on there. I delete them
