Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.1 Free Download

Microsoft .NET FrameworkOverview

The .NET Framework is Microsoft's comprehensive and consistent programming model for building applications that have visually stunning user experiences, seamless and secure communication, and the ability to model a range of business processes.

The Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.1 is a highly compatible, in-place update to the Microsoft .NET Framework 4 and the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.

The Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.1 runs side-by-side with the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 and earlier versions, but performs an in-place update for the .NET Framework 4 and the .NET Framework 4.5. Applications that are based on earlier versions of the Framework will continue to run on the version targeted by default.
