My old laptop is soon to be retired. Just got the new one and installed vanila FL. Tried to avoid a 2+h download of the mod so then installed the mod I downloaded before the last update. Figured it would update same like it did on the old laptop. Started the launcher and got a message that this version of the app cant run on my laptop. Tried to run as administrator but same thing.
Any ideas? Will a fresh mod download solve the problem or is this some kind of a Microsoft thing that needs to be dalt in some other way?

Yea, I think so. In the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP I have v4 and v4.0 listed
To add I reinstalled to a location which does not require admin privileges and ran it. It started updating and then timed out. Tried again and came up against the same message immediately after the second attempt.

Yes thats exactly what I ran into. Just tried the first 3 solutions sfrom ur link. After completing all 3 installed discovery in new profile and ran it.
Launcher started and got a pop up with message "Launcher Updater, Updating launcher, please wait." Progress bar went smooth to about half way then I got another popup "God damn blodo, Can't download the file. Restart the launcher or ask for help on the forums. Reason: Operation timed out."
If I now restart the launcher I get the same windows pop up about not being to run d file.

Problem solved by brute force. Reinstalled the mod several times. If first time run after install the launcher update breaks then windows doesn't want to run it any more giving the message that the app can run on my machine. Happened several times until the launcher update completed successfully. After successful launcher update everything went reasonably ok.
Only issue since then is that several files that the launcher was downloading broke several times and had to be repeated. Particularly annoying when a 47MB download breaks after 46MB downloaded.
