Do you sometimes get the error message “The application failed to initialize properly. Click on OK to terminate the application” when trying to run a program?

It is most likely the program requires Microsoft .NET installed in order to run. If you’re not sure which version of .NET is installed on your computer, here’s a quick way to find out which versions and service packs of the .NET runtime are installed on a machine.
DotNet VersionCheck is a free utility that is able to detect all versions of .NET installed on your computer. From version 1 beta up to version 3. VersionCheck allows you to print or email the version summary information direct from inside the program. It will also tell you whether you have the required Windows components to run .NET applications, and will prompt you with download locations if not.

To use VersionCheck, download from the link below, extract the archive and run VersionCheck.exe.
