ObjectDock does not use .Net 4.0.  You should install 3.5 and 2.0.

Silly Microsoft doesn't provide previous version of the .Net framework in newer versions.  It makes for smaller, more targeted packages . . but also some confusion.

Roll back to 3.5. Then try reinstalling, although with XP. I don't know why you'd need it.

If you re-installed, and lost .NET 3.5, you have a problem. MS is the only source of the .NET updates.

I use http://sd.stardock.com/mike/apps/dotnet.exe to check and install .net frameworks.  :)

It's too bad there isn't some sort of directory for all the tools SD has.

A page with the tools and a description of what each is for, and how to use it wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing... As long as by downloading and using one agrees that any problems occuring after download and use are not SD's fault nor is SD obligated to fix nor replace any software or hardware damaged as a result of use. @Rosco_P - nirsoft is a great site! Been touting it for some time.
