Install Microsoft .Net Framework 4.0
Autodesk Navisworks Freedom 2012 requires Microsoft .Net 4.0 to be installed
prior to product installation.
Most Windows updates should include Microsoft .NET Framework 4, however,
for old versions of Windows, you can download and install Microsoft .NET
Framework 4 redistributables from:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/de-
tails.aspx?FamilyID=0a391abd-25c1-4fc0-919f-b21f31ab88b7
or install Microsoft
.Net Framework 4 from the following directory in the installation media:
\3rdParty\NET\4\wcu\dotNetFramework\.
The Installation wizard will install Microsoft .Net Framework 4 if it detects
that required updates have not been installed.
NOTE If the Installation wizard prompts you to install the Microsoft .NET 4.0
Framework, the .NET 4.0 Framework installer may prompt you to first install the
Windows Imaging Component (WIC). This can occur if you do not have the latest
Microsoft Windows updates or service packs. You are most likely to need WIC if
you are running Windows XP SP2 without certain Windows Updates installed. If
required, the Microsoft WIC installers are available at the following locations:
