    Contact the author/developer/support team for that tool and ask them for a version that is compiled with a different .NET framework.

    We really can't help you if you don't provide specific details of the error. IE, do you have a dump? Do you have the source code to this program? What statement is causing the crash? How would we recreate the error to verify that it really is a .NET problem and test against other .NET versions?

    I guess that the forum software doesn't like the links that I posted since it deleted my answer.

    To summarize: you can create an application config file to specify (force) the .Net runtime version for a given program. You will have to search the net as to how to do that.

    I also commented that I didn't think that there was a high probability that that would work. Your best bet is to contact the developer of that program and ask for help. The root issue is probably not a .Net framework error but something that the program is doing. If it is something in Framework, then the developer will most likely need to recompile it and target a newer version of the Framework.
