Hi Thomas,
I am in Germany, and so is my mother.
She bought a laptop a while ago with Windows 7 Home Premium.
And I can tell you the following (she is sighted, while I am blind, thus she
did checking):
1.
Her Windows includes a subversion of .net 3.5 which seems to be called .net
3.51 (by default (pre SP1, which is not included in the installation DVD).
2.
There are two offline installers for .net 4.0, the full package and the
Client Profile.
I can run the full package on my desktop computer, which currently runs
Windows XP.
The same installation file for .net 4.0 I use, had to be used on her laptop
to install .net 4.0.
After this was done, she could use Windows Update to get patches for .net
4.0
3.
Microsoft announced and released a version called .net Framework 4.5 which
can be installed on Vista and Windows 7 (if I am not mistaken), but I am not
sure if this is included in Windows 8 or not (not Windows RT). It seems to
be more an update than a separate version with its own folders, but I might
be wrong here.
I am not sure if this version of Windows was altered by the hardware
manufacturer, but theese are the facts, at least for this one Windows 7
system...
