Error installing .NET CF 3.5 Redistributable

[AmnDucky]

I searched and couldn't find anything. Stock ROM, new Touch Pro. When I try to install it, the progress bar gets all the way to the end then I get this

Installation error. Stop all applications and processes, maximize available storage space, and run installation again. Support info: 2.

I closed everything, turned off TF3D, and am around 50% of my RAM used. Still no dice . Any advice?

Hi there, give this a try, it should solve your issues installing,
Solution:
1. download mobile registry editor
2. delete entry \local machine\software\microsoft\netcompactframework (delete all of it)
3. re-install net compact framework 3.5

Is there a reg editor that is better than others? Any should I avoid? Or are they all pretty much the same?

I personally like sktools registry editor the best, that and memmaid, but both of those are paid apps. There's some free ones available, that i hear are just as good, but i cant recall the names of them, sorry. Maybe total commander?

Never ever delete the whole NETCompactFramework, the reason being, the NCF 2.0.7045.00, 2.0.7048.00 are also in the there, a lot of apps still need these files... The only file to be deleted is the NCF 3.5 and it's to be reinstalled immediately with the updated version NCF 3.5, never ever delete the whole thing... You will cause problems for your TP, it will act very erratic...

Thaaaat would be bad. The only thing I need is the file explorer to find and install the .cab, would all of that be messed up if I wiped it all?

If you're right about that, oops, my apologies for posting bad info. I had just read on 2 other forums, that the solution i posted worked. But, circumstances may have been different. Thanks for correcting me Tech.
