SyncToy

[Guest]

I am trying to download and install the Microsoft PowerToy "SyncToy" from the
web. i have used this program before and like it. I re-imaged my computer
and now want to download and install it again. I am downloading from the web
site:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Microsoft PowerToys for
Windows XP.htm

I keep getting a message that says that I must have .Net Framework 1.1.4322

It directs me to the next page to get this .Net and that page says I already
have .Net Framework 2.0

I can't get any further. Does SynchToy not work with .Net Framework 2.0?
How do I go backward to version 1.1.4322?

Any suggestions.

Thanks

I'd install 1.1 as well

Thanks Val, that was the problem. I would have done the same, but I didn't
see version 1.1 on the page the link sent me to.

Thanks for sending the link.

It would make sense that a 2.0 supports all that came before, but not always
so. Setting up a new or refreshed machine you should load the .NET
Framework 1.1 and 2.0 to be safe (1.0 is probably safe to skip).

The basic Framwork webpage is, of course, only gonna show you the current
version. Considering all the "helpful links" MS provides, why not links to
the previous versions? Sigh
