I recently installed the Visual Studio 2005 CTP Beta on my machine. That went fine, but when I uninstalled it (as my team later told me we were going to be working with VS2005 Beta 1), it didn't uninstall version 2.0.41115 of the framework.

Later, I installed VS2005 Beta 1, and it installed version 2.0.40607 of the framework. Now I have both versions on my PC and this is possibly the cause for VS crashing so often.

I've tried uninstalling VS2005 Beta 1, but it leaves the newer framework from the CTP version on the machine.

So, how do I get rid of the version 2.0.41115 of the framework? It doesn't appear in the Add/Remove panel. I suppose I could just delete the C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.41115 directory, but I'm sure that would lead to problems.

Any suggestions?
