Tracing .Net Framework 1.0 usage
In order to check whether i can safely uninstall the .Net Framework 1.0, i was wondering if i could track the framework usage.
1) Would it be a good idea to scan every "exe" and "dll" and check if they force the loading of .Net Framework 1.0? I'm afraid it's time expensive and Hard Disk stressing.
2) Would it be a good idea to monitor (in real time), for a week, the loading of .Net Applications and log those who load .Net 1.0? How to monitor, hook the loader or what?
3) Is there already a tool that does what i'm looking for?
I'll have to take a look at: Assembly Binding Log Viewer (Fuslogvw.exe)

I don't know if this catches all the cases in which the framework is involved, though.
@MystereMan - Repartition is an option i was considering, but i don't feel very comfortable with playing with full partitions.
I agree with others, there is no reason to uninstall it, unless you're short on disk space. Even then, it's better to upgrade your disk in my opinion.
However, doesn't it seem obvious that the answer is, just uninstall it and see if anything breaks. You can always reinstall it if something does.
