    Hi, guys...

    I worked both of my jobs today, but I am watching Francisco's video right now. I am very encouraged by Electron Entanglement's success. Thanks, everyone for being willing to help me, and especially thanks to Francisco Coca for coming up with the solution so many of us were waiting for!

    Because I am also working both jobs on Thursday, I won't be able to try it again until Friday night or Saturday morning. I will let you all know what happens!

    Thanks again so much, and good night...

    David

    Hi, Francisco...

    I decided to start over. I will only be able to do a little bit tonight. 

    There is something I don't understand: I downloaded both Microsoft.net 3.5 and 4.6. (My computer wouldn't let me download 4.0 or 4.1. It said I already had an equal or later version, so I downloaded 4.6.1.) I looked in my Control Panel and 4.6.1 is listed, but I can't find and run the program. When I go into "Turn on and off Windows Features," 3.5 is listed there, which I completely enabled, but 4.6.1 is not there. What is going on?

    ok. in my case im running on win 10 OS. win 10 allows you to enable net 3.5 (4.x its installed by default ) whe n you turn on feature windows downloads and installs the net files needed package. we only need those files on system to abyss web server for properly running. install win 7 all in one installers (aio not from microsoft but with all net framework versions included. obviousty if yar running win 7  ) .

    its not mandatory to have 4.6.1 net framework files installed. we need to enable 3.5 and keep working the preinstalled 4.X . those 2 net versions are enough to do lots of things (installing old software and some other things)
