Does .NET 2 enabled by default in Windows 8.1?

[pimu80]

.NET Framework 2 was not enabled by default in Windows 8. I got a new laptop recently (lenovo yoga pro 2) and noticed that it was enabled, but only after I've installed few programs, so I'm not sure if it was enabled from the box. So does .NET Framework 2 enabled by default in Windows 8.1?

It is not enabled by default in Windows 8.1 because some programs run out of bounds using previous versions of Microsoft’s .NET Framework. If you need the older version to run some apps, here's a link to help you with that:
