Re: error code: 0x66A

[Guest jlsommer]

Eric - after I loaded the Windows Installer Clean Up - I looked for

Microsoft.Net Framework 2.0 - if I removed this version, will I be going

backwards in versions? The second question, if you suggest not to remove,

why is the scan showing I need an upgrade? Thanks for any help
