    The Microsoft .NET Framework is a software technology that is available with several Microsoft Windows operating systems. It includes a large library of pre-coded solutions to common programming problems and a virtual machine that manages the execution of programs written specifically for the framework. The .NET Framework is a key Microsoft offering and is intended to be used by most new applications created for the Windows platform.

    I’m a bit biased because I develop .NET applications, but the short answer is that it allows you to run apps that are written for it. An increasing number are these days with the growing popularity of languages like C# and VB.NET. Without going into too much detail, if a program is created in these languages, it requires the .NET Framework to be installed on the computer that runs them.

    I wouldn’t recommend uninstalling it, but even if you do, future software installation will let you know if you need it, and likely prompt you to install it (so it won’t be that big of a deal).

    The .net library was written and offered for free by Microsoft to allow common functionality across different technologies. That is: you can use the same library to write code for a desktop application, a database, webserver, etc. My gripe is the library is too huge — 10-gig. It takes 10-gig to make a simple dialog box with a button to work. .net is not just Microsoft. There are several other frameworks using the .net library including one project called MONO.

    Like you, I downloaded .net to change options on my graphics card. Turns out that was a waste. The options were to configure the card for TV-out. I deleted the .net.
