Hi, I’m just trying to open Rhino and have received the error message, “Unable to initialize .NET Framework (error -200). Please repair the Rhino installation from Control Panel > Apps & Features. Rhino will not run.”
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, as well as repairing it on the control panel but after both the same error message comes up.
Do you have any plugins loaded? Does Rhino open via the Safe Mode (windows start>Rhino 8 in safe mode) . The shortcut is here if it doesn’t come up in search.
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Rhino 8
lets try simply running windows update to make sure all updates are installed. You may need to do this more than once to get them all, as some rely on others to be installed.
if that does not work we’ll try repairing your .net install 1st, then retry your vc runtimes, then repair rhino in that order, restarting your machine between each step
I got here via a Google search. I have two computers at this point stuck with this error. I spent some time trying to resolve one of them this morning with no luck. I followed the steps recommended here and it didn’t resolve anything. Any ideas what to do next?
So it appears that with the /netcore command it fails the same as without any command (with the .net error) /netfx works fine - at least as far as quick look allows. I’m not the user with the issue so I am currently only getting quick windows to look at the machines with the problems.
The only plugins I’m expecting to use are V-Ray and Enscape. On one of the computers for extra fun Enscape also botched an install of an upgrade so that isn’t currently working in any Rhino at the moment so I can’t test if it works or not yet.
