Answer 1

You should first look up in google before posting here.. But here it goes:

What is it?

The .NET Framework provides a run-time environment called the common language runtime, which runs the code and provides services that make the development process easier.

Where is it located?.

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727

Of course the last part depends on your version.
