I can't use programs that require .NET Framework.

I'm trying to use a program that has previously worked flawlessly. This program is called GHTCP, which is used with Guitar Hero 3 PC. It requires .NET Framework 2.0 or higher to use. All of sudden, the program just stopped working. I asked to program creator about this, and he said that it sounds like a .NET Framework so here I am.

I'm running Windows Vista. I've tried uninstalling and then installing .NET Framework 3.0 but thats not working. I found that .NET Framework is part of the OS so I can't remove it. Is there any way aside from repairing/reinstalling Windows that I can fix this?

    Hello? I still need help. I've taken to my own investigation and noticed that at first when I would start the NGEN service, it would start and then stop a few seconds later. Now when I try to start, it tells me it started but stopped and that sometimes happens when its not in use. So what does this mean? And what can I do?

    Okay I don't know exactly which file you need, so I included all four text files. I think I did the SkyDrive thing right, I've never used it before. Try this link:

    Ok, the guide was written for an older version of the debugging tools.

    Is the GHTCP.EXE no longer running when you run the command? When you get the "has stopped message", don't click ok, to close the WER dialog and the crashes tool.

    Instead run the commad to create a dump of the crashed application.

    Okay I got that installed now. A new problem (of course) has risen. When I run the command listed on the page you give me (replacing appname with ghtcp.exe) it gives me this error:

    "C:\Program Files\Debugging Tools for Windows>cscript adplus.vbs -crash -pn ghtcp

    .exe -quiet -o c:\adplus

    Microsoft (R) Windows Script Host Version 5.7

    Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

    Input Error: Can not find script file "C:\Program Files\Debugging Tools for Wind

    ows\adplus.vbs"."

    I looked in the Debugging Tools folder and there was a file called adplus_old.vbs that was a VGS Script, so I put in the command but changed adplus.vbs to adplus_old.vbs and this came up:

    "C:\Program Files\Debugging Tools for Windows>cscript adplus_old.vbs -crash -pn g

    htcp.exe -quiet -o c:\adplus

    Microsoft (R) Windows Script Host Version 5.7

    WARNING!  An '_NT_SYMBOL_PATH' environment variable is not set.

    Please check the application event log or the ADPlus-report.txt

    for more details.

    The following requested processes are not executing:

    GHTCP.EXE;"

    What now?

    That's not working either. The instructions for one say I should have a folder in Program Files called "Debugging Tools For Windows" so I can't use that.

    You have to install the Debugging Tools for Windows first.
