Anyone who wants to use an application that requires the .Net framework,
inwhich case they can obtain .Net separately from Microsoft or let the
application install it.

Whichever ones the manufacturer of decided to utilize the .NET Framework...
In other words - it can be anything - you'd have to look at the system
requirements of the software to know.

..NET Framework 2.0
..NET Framework 3.0
..NET Framework 3.5

Thank you kindly.
What are some common applications that do require the .NET Framework?
Does it make the OS more "complete", "powerful" or "secure" to have all
these installed:

.NET Framework 2.0
.NET Framework 3.0
.NET Framework 3.5

Normally any installation that needs either of those
will tell you so at install time and probably is
indicated in the docs for that program. But once it's
installed there is little you can do to be sure one of
them is installed with it.
If you have none of those and everything works well and
nothing is asking for one of those, then you don't need
them.
If you're trying to figure out what's useing the one/s
you already have, try renaming their folder name to
make them un-findable and see if any programs complain
that it's missing. If it's needed, the program needing
it should plainly state so in an error message, or will
at least quit working. In which case name the folder
back of course.
When I rename such folders, I usually put a "-" in
fron tof the name; makes them float to the top of an
alpha listing in Explorer so they're easy to find.

Yes, it does help.
Thank you kindly.
I have installed them all except 3.5 -- using a belt and suspenders
approach, which is probably overkill.
Do some of the common MS applications use them?
That would seem to be eminently logical.

Actually, no, if you mean things like Office and MS's
generalized apps. The .NETs are more for support of
software developers who write programs, sometimes
rather complex, such as CADD software, some Video
applications, things like that. Sometimes it bugs me
because you think you're getting this neat little
program that takes hardly any disk space, and then they
turn around and tell you to get this huge .NET variant
to make their program work<g>. Don't get me wrong;
it's the way to do it, but ... still ... .

Very Enlightening...
THAT is what I was trying to get at -- which sort of programs require them.
Thank you.
