I recently installed the Visual Studio 2005 CTP Beta on my
machine. That went fine, but when I uninstalled it (as my
team later told me we were going to be working with VS2005
Beta 1), it didn't uninstall version 2.0.41115 of the
framework.

Later, I installed VS2005 Beta 1, and it installed version
2.0.40607 of the framework. Now I have both versions on my
PC and this is possibly the cause for VS crashing so often.

I've tried uninstalling VS2005 Beta 1, but it leaves the
newer framework from the CTP version on the machine.

So, how do I get rid of the version 2.0.41115 of the
framework? It doesn't appear in the Add/Remove panel. I
suppose I could just delete the
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.41115 directory,
but I'm sure that would lead to problems.

Any suggestions?

Try this!

Start > Run and type Installer and then click Ok
From the View menu select Details
Right click on the Column Header Date Modified
Select Comments
In the Comments column locate "Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Beta RTL x86
enu; Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation, All rights reserved."
Once you locate it, right click on the Filename and select Uninstall.

Now my concern here will be that you may not be able to tell the version.
In this case, you will need Orca from the Platform SDK to open the cached
MSI in the %windir%\installer folder and review the ProductVersion Property
in the Property Table before uninstalling.
