Programs are nothing more than tons of lines of code bundled up in a working package by other specialized environments. Code itself isn’t just text, with various classifications for easy management and integration. Dedicated to one set in particular, .NET Framework Detector wants to let you know what version of .NET Framework is installed on your PC.

In case you’re not aware of what .NET Framework is, you might want to know it’s a large library of classes used in programming, primarily for Microsoft Windows operating systems. There are more versions out there, but recent Windows iterations already come with it by default, so you don’t have to spend extra time downloading and installing it later on.

One good thing about this tiny application is that you don’t even have to install it for it to work on your computer. Among others, it means you can easily store it on an USB Flash drive and use it on other computers as well. Moreover, system registries remain intact, because the application only reads existing info on your computer that doesn’t ask for any registry keys.

Upon launch, a compact prompt shows up on your desktop, enlisting all the versions of .NET Framework it can identify, as well as whether or not they are installed. The application can display .NET Framework versions 1 to 3.5, including service pack builds. Unfortunately, the classes library has even more versions, which makes the utility’s overall practicality questionable.

You can have more versions of .NET Framework installed on your computer. They’re used to build applications, and you’ve surely stumbled upon programs that require a specific version in order to run. Sadly, you’re only shown info, with no options to remove existing versions, upgrade, or install missing ones.

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that .NET Framework Detector comes with good intentions, and gets the job properly done, but only to some extent. Because of the lack of recent updates, the application is unable to identify or display newer versions of .NET Framework, which has a significant impact on practicality.
