CLR Error 80004005

Hi all
I'm sure this is the millionth time being posted but none of the topics I've
seen explain this; I have a few programs that simply do not start in vista
ultimate with the error:

"CLR error 80004005. the program will now terminate." one such program is
Vista Manager (a vista tweaker). my guess is it's something with NetF 2.0
conflict from upgrade from xp.

thank you

I'm using home edition basic Vista and I have the same problem running Easy
BCD 1.52. Moreover whenever I try to open the log viewer in the control
panel, I get "Unable to open Snap-In." In my case, Vista came installed on
the computer.

However, I think it may have something to do with installing a set of Visual
Express Edition programming tools, SQL VEE, etc., before compatability issues
have been solved. Moreover, I uninstalled these programs in no particular
order and have garbage files in the folders that were not deleted with the
uninstall. I am considering just deleting these files and running a registry
cleaner.

I just haven't done it yet. I was hoping to find an answer here. But it
seems that no matter how I search, I cannot find out what Error 80004005 even
means.

Maybe someone at microsoft could explain what the code means. But it isn't
anywhere else on their sites as far as I can tell.
