Missing .Net Framework Configuration Utility

[John Coltrane]

I installed VS 2008 with the .Net framework and the Configuration
utility doesn't seem to be installed. The book I am using says it should
be installed in the administration applet. How can I install this?

thanks for your help

Do you mean you do not have "Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Configuration"
applet in Control Panel->Administrativer Tools? Or are looking for
"Microsoft .NET Framework 3.x Configuration"? If it is the latter, no, there
is no such thing, because .NET 3.x is just add-ons on top of .NET2.0. For
CAS, you still use .NET2.0 Configuration Applet. If it is former, that means
your .NET 2.0 SDK was not installed properly.

Norman,
I do not have the applet. I did a complete install of Visual Studio
2008. I thought this would install everything. Is there a separate
install for the Framework?

That Applet only comes with .NET2.0 SDK Since VS2008 will install .NET3.5,
which in turn installs .NET2.0 SDK, I suppose. Since all my computers have
had .NET2.0 SDK/VS2005 installed before VS2008, so, I am not sure why your
VS2008 did ot get that installed.

However, if you can try to install .NET2.0 SDK first and then reinstall your
VS2008 (before reinstalling, you can verify if that applet is there or not).
Or you search your c: drive for "mscorcfg.msc", which is the applet. If you
found, then you definitely has .NET2.0 SDK installed, it just for some
reason the shortcut did not get created in Control Pabel->Administrative
Tools applet.

I have also heard that VB2008 Express version also not set this applet up.
Are you using VB2008 Express? If so, I'd install .NET2.0 SDK first and then
install VS2008 Express.

Here is also a good info in this regard:

it looks like I do have 2.0 installed. I have v2.0.50727 installed.
Maybe the applet isn't registered? I tried to reinstall but it said it
was already installed. I have the full Visual Studio from the MSDN
Professional edition.
