.NET Framework requirements

Report · Oct 17, 2017

I have reader DC on a server and Reader XI on another. These servers also have more that one version of .net framework. I am trying to find out if I can remove the older versions without bothering Reader. Both machines also have flash player 27 activeX.

both servers have .net framework 1.1

.net framework 4.5.2

one has .net framework 3.5 SP1

Do I need the older versions?

Reader does not need .net so far as I know, but you can readily test this by removing it then installing Reader. It does need Flash NPAPI (Not ActiveX)
