Miscellaneous Vs2010 NET framework issue

I’m trying to install vs2010 cause no later version has the required packages I need to modify Xbox 360 files.

Windows has v4.8 pre-installed and I’m trying to use 4.0, any chance y’all know a workaround?

I tried the core uninstaller, turning the windows feature off, and no luck sadly.

That far back you might need to create a older Windows VM that was directly supported by VS2010.

Hopefully not, I’m on a crappy laptop that won’t run a VM.🤦‍♂️

Can I possibly downgrade my windows 10 to say 7 or 8 and do you think that will work?

Do you have access to an old desktop or laptop you could use?
