For more information about Windows Installer, visit the Windows Installer MSDN website (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=195006) .

Restart requirement

This hotfix does not require a system restart. However, it will trigger a restart of all Internet Information Services (IIS)-related services, including the IISADMIN, W3SVC, FTP, and SMTP services. This behavior occurs because the base product MSI file for the .NET Framework 2.0 includes instructions for restarting these services. Therefore, every update to the product will execute these instructions.

Update removal information

To remove this update, use the Add or Remove Programs item in Control Panel.

Update replacement information

This update replaces the following Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 (SP1) and Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2 security update:
