A huge one with a massive amount of functions to make life a lot easier for programmers. More and more programs are build using dot-net. And users who want to run dot-net programs need the dot-net 'runtime' on their machine. regards, Marcel |

| | Re: What is it? It's a comprehensive package of prepared software routines that are available to programmers to use in their programs. The programmer uses the routines simply by referring to the software already installed on your PC. This means that the programmer does not have to repeat all that code in every program they write. So although updating it from Microsoft does take quite a long time you are saving much more than that time whenever you need to download or install a program that uses it. And you are using a single, updated copy of those routines rather than many separate (possibly outdated) routines embedded in each program that you have installed.
