User cannot run C# released app - "The application failed to init.properly" - c#

I am desperate due to this problem:
I have created and built app which works fine on mine and my colleagues PC. However, third user reports that with .NET 3.5 the app reports:
"The application failed to init.properly" and with .NET 4.0 "Unable to find the version of runtime to run this application“.
Could you please advice? It was built with 3.5.
EDIT:After installing 3.5 SP2, there is no error message. It just does not execute :(
Thanks

For .NET 4.0 version problem is that the framework is not installed on the users PC.
For .NET 3.5 if you are sure that the needed version of framework installed then most probably user doesn't have access to some system file required by the application.

ClickOnce Deployment .Net Framework 4.6.1 installation error

I have a clickonce application being tested on a virtual machine. This virtual machine is empty and my application requires .Net Framework 4.6.1 on the machine. Now, my application is able to install .Net 4.6.1 but I'm having a weird behavior after install. I'm receiving this message when the application is being open after the installation of .Net 4.6.1.
I added 4.6.1 on my prerequisite by following this guide. How to Create .Net Framework Prerequisites Entry in Microsoft Visual Studio 2015
Here's the message
When I try to run the setup again, the setup process goes through then it launches my application. It seems the setup cannot detect the framework installed right after it install it. Or something went wrong somewhere during the installation. Is there a way to handle this? Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thanks!
The error message says that your application requires CLR 4.0.xxxx. If you specify .NET 4.0 as requirement too ? Maybe you are trying to execute something developped with .NET 4.0 anyway. This could help you :
Backward compatibility and the .NET Framework 4.5 :
The .NET Framework 4.5 and its point releases are backward-compatible with apps that were built with earlier versions of the .NET Framework.In other words, apps and components built with previous versions will work without modification on the .NET Framework 4.5.However, by default, apps run on the version of the common language runtime for which they were developed, so you may have to provide a configuration file to enable your app to run on the .NET Framework 4.5.For more information, see the Version compatibility for apps section earlier in this article.

Could not load file or assembly System, Version 2.0.0

I have a .NET application that currently builds and runs fine in a development environment but running the application on another machine is throwing this error.
The machine I am trying to run this on is running Windows Server 2012 which has .NET 4.5 baked into it. The error appears to be a .NET error however the GAC is showing the System Version 2.0.0.0 assembly installed. Also nothing is being written to Event Viewer on the application crash.
Any help or any idea of where to begin looking is appreciated.
Dan from above was correct, installing .NET 3.5 on the server fixed the error.
This link may possibly explain the error:
Make sure your .NET framework is patched.
It seems that the best explanation is that the server needs patched--but it could be the development machine as well.

.Net framework client profile issue

I have a C# project developed by someone else. When I open it in VS 2013 then it shows message that it is targeting .Net Framework 4.0 client profile which is not installed so either change target to 4.5 or install it 4.0.
I downloaded .Net framework 4.0 client profile and when tried to install it, got error message that a higher version is already available on the system.
How to fix this issue?
Here's the link from where I downloaded the file.

c# app doesn't work on XP

i made a app that uses the watIn library, and target to .NET 3.5 (so it will work on XP to).
after i published the app on my PC, i installed it, and it worked well. but, when i tried it on different PC running XP, it didn't work. i made sure the PC I'm testing on is running .NET 3.5 or grater.
I'm running windows 7 and visual studio 2010.
the program work on Windows 7 (tried that on 2 PC's).
the program doesn't work on XP (tried that on 2 PC's).
On Xp i get this message:
Unable to install or run the application. The application requires that
assembly WindowsBase Version 3.0.0.0 be installed in the Global
Assembly Cache (GAC) first.
Please contact your administrator
my questions:
what should i do to make sure it work on XP?
if i start the development on .net 4, and then switch it to 3.5 and it still run, that mean i only used 3.5 code/features from the get go?
will visual studio give me compile Error if i run 4.0 code on app that i change his properties to target .net 3.5 in the middle of development?
is there a way to install the .net 3.5 framework with my app installer? (if it doesn't already got 1 on the PC)
(sorry for my English)
Make sure that the PC's running XP have .NET installed on them. Windows 7 will already come with the .NET Framework installed, but XP doesn't have the newer versions of the framework.
Also, if your project requires a specific version of the .NET framework, it's good to add it as a prerequisite in your setup installer.
Also, in your build, make sure you're targeting the proper framework.

What is required to run a c# console application on a computer

I have created a simple c# console application with .net framework 2.0 that uses MySql. What steps should I do in order to get the program run on another computer(Windows Server 2008)?
I already have MS .Net framework Clent Profile and MS .Net framework Clent Profile Extended installed.
Should I install .net framework 2.0 Service pack too on the other pc?
Thanks.
You just need .Net Framework 2.0 or later to be installed on the machine.
It would would be better to make an installer.
Make sure you have .Net framework 2.0 installed on the computer. Also make sure you have the .Net dlls required for making connection. If your application is going to use the local machine as MySQL server then, you may have to intall MySQL on the client machine as well, or you can make an installer with MySQL installation included. You can use InnoSetup or you may check out the following thread Deploy MySQL Server + DB with .Net application
Environment - .Net Framework.
Version - Same as one or higher in which you app is targeted.
Why i said no particular version number because what if you app is in 4.0 and you have 2.0 installed?
That's why same version or higher.
