You must install .NET message when running launcher - been playing with no issues for several weeks

Message started popping up from yesterday as per the title. I've been playing with no issues for several weeks up until then though.

May be related to a Windows 10 update:

I have uninstalled .NET 5.0.9 (I think - from add/remove programmes) and reinstalled .NET 5.0.0. Stopped Win 10 updates, but I still get the message. I also tried to uninstall latest quality updates in Windows 10 but that didn't work.

Thanks in advance and love the mod!

Thanks for the reply. To confirm I have had .NET 5.0.0 *64 installed and SPT was working fine for the last few weeks. However, since yesterday I cannot run the launcher despite having uninstalled 5.0.9 from the win 10 update and reinstalling 5.0.0 *64. Do you have any other suggestions please?

Thanks again. Gave that a try but no joy. So I reset Win 10 keeping my personal files but removing programmes and apps. Then installed .net 5.0.0 *64. The launcher worked at that point but didn't recognise my BSGTarkov install. Installed another copy and all working fine now.
