Chuck,
Thank you. I did look at the website for .NET Framework
briefly.
It looks like a development tool to allow integration of
different programs and environments. It seems to me if a
program I was running required .NET Framework, it would
tell me up front or intstall the supporting files on its
own. Why I need to have installed that I'm not sure. Of
course, Microsoft can say that it WAS optional, but the
format the Updater uses is not very helpful in determining
what should be installed. The website I wandered into has
the fixes lists as Critical, Moderate, etc.
At any rate, I will try to dig through the .NET site to
learn more about attaching the computer name to each user.
My problem started before the recent update, but maybe I
can learn something to point me in the right direction.
Poking around on the Microsoft site, I found a page
telling how to find which version you are running and it
mentioned a GREAT program, dxdiag, which you can invoke
from the Start Run window. LOTS of information in a nicely
displayed format. Have you tried it?
