Uploading this because I couldn’t find these installers anywhere else. Had to dig through old page archives of the Microsoft website on the Wayback Machine to get these.

What is .NET Framework?
The .NET Framework is a software development framework developed by Microsoft. It includes a large library of pre-coded solutions that developers can use to create applications for Windows, web, and mobile devices. The framework provides a programming model, a runtime, and tools to create and run applications. .NET Framework simplifies the application development process and reduces the development time due to pre-written code, making the development task less complicated.
If you are a developer or advanced user, you will need multiple .NET Framework versions to be installed on the same system for testing and other purposes. I find it difficult to find and then download each version from Microsoft’s website, as the downloads are scattered all around. The purpose of this page is to organize all the .NET Framework versions download links in one place, so that you can download your desired version with a single click.
You can also check which versions of .NET Framework are already installed in your system.
Note: Please note that the direct download links given in the following tables are for 64-bit systems. If you want more download links for each .NET version, please click on More Info.

Pros
- Less coding with OOP: .NET framework is based on the object-oriented programming model (OOP), which divides software into small pieces that are easier to manage, test, and fix.
- Reliable and scalable: .NET framework is robust and scalable, allowing developers to create large and complex applications that can handle high traffic and performance demands.
- Cross-platform: .NET framework is designed to be compatible with multiple operating systems including Windows, Linux and MacOS. It is also cloud-friendly. This gives developers more flexibility and choice in deploying their applications.
- Share Libraries: .NET Standard is a set of APIs common to all .NET platforms, such as .NET Framework, .NET Core, Xamarin, and UWP. This makes it easier to share code and libraries across different platforms.
Cons
- Limited Object-Relational Support: .NET framework does not have native support for object-relational mapping (ORM), which is a technique that maps data between objects and relational databases. Developers must use third-party tools or frameworks, such as Entity Framework or NHibernate, to achieve this functionality.
- Licensing cost: Although .NET framework itself is free, some components or tools may require a license fee. For example, Visual Studio has different editions with different prices and features. Developers may also need to pay for hosting or cloud services if they use them.
- Memory leaks: .NET framework relies on CLR to manage memory allocation and garbage collection. However, this does not guarantee that memory leaks will not occur. Developers still have to be careful with unmanaged resources, such as files or network connections, and dispose of them properly.
