How to Install .NET Framework for Handbrake

The Microsoft .NET Framework is a software framework that can be installed on computers running Microsoft Windows operating systems. It includes a large library of coded solutions to common programming problems (surely Handbrake is one of them) and a virtual machine that manages the execution of programs written specifically for the framework. Since Handbrake at times lacks of coded solution, you need to install .NET Framework. HandBrake may send you the wrond download after you click the Yes button when HandBrake asks whether you want to install .NET now. What you should install is the .NET Desktop Runtime, not .NET Runtime. You can get .NET Framework easily like this:

• Step 1: Visit Microsoft webpage and search ".NET Framework".
• Step 2: Open the download page for the .NET Framework version that Handbrake asks for. Handbrake 1.5.1 requires .NET 6 and later.
• Step 3: Find .NET Desktop Runtime and select x64 to download. HandBrake doesn't run on 32 bit platforms anymore so x86 is irrelevant.
• Step 4: After the installer is downloaded, run it and follow the prompts.
