[sunilkalra123]

Describe your issue:
installed 2024.1.7.0 but when opening it keeps prompting to install .NET desktop runtime 8.0.0 x64. I already have 8.0.1 installed and downgraded to 8.0.0 just in case, neither worked.

Downgraded to 2024.1.6.0 without an issue

Steps to reproduce the issue:

1. install .net desktop runtime 8.0.1
2. install NETworkManager 2024.1.7.0
3. run NETworkManager

NETworkManager version:
2024.1.7.0

• Portable

Windows version (like 10.0.x.x):
11 22H2
.NET version (like 6.0.x):
8.0.1

Just a note, I did have desktop runtime 6 and 8.0.1 installed when I initially installed the update. Then I removed 8.0.1 and installed 8.0.0 – still prompted the same Reinstalled NETworkmanager – same issue Removed runtime 6 – same issue Reinstalled 8.0.1 – same issue Reverted back to previous version of NETworkManager I have now reinstalled the latest version of NETworkManager and it appears to be working. I have also reinstalled runtime 6 and reinstalled NETworkmanager and its still working. So I guess it’s a non issue Sunil Kalra Senior Consultant t: 01223 921 000 m: 07908 545 946 e: ***@***.*** w: cambridgesupport.com Cambridge: 01223 921 500 Huntingdon: 01480 570 500 Stevenage: 01438 535 500 A Personal Touch in Everything We do...
