I am running Windows XP and have .NET Framework versions 1.1, 2.0, 3.0 and 3.5 install. Should I removed all but the last version, or do they build on each other?

Thank You,

Welcome to the forum!

Leave each version of Net Framework installed as they are. This is because different applications need a different version of it (that's why Net Framework versions install themselves to a separate folder instead of overwriting the previous version). If you were to keep only the latest version and removed the others, some of your applications which rely on a specific version of Net Framework may not work anymore.
