I'm running windows XP for one of my machines, it has .Net Framework 1, 2, 3, and 3.5 installed
When I try to run this program is says
"(app name).exe - .NET Framework Initilization Error"
"C:\Windows\microsoft.net\Framework\v2.050727\mscorwks.dll could not be loaded"
I've searched for hours for solutions, but nobody seems to have a definite answer. Can somebody please help me resolve this issue?
Thanks in advanced!

Copy the file off a pc that does have that file and copy it in to the folder it's looking for or in to C:\Windows\System32
Alternatively use this site for the dll:

Definitely try to get the DLL from source, or from a PC which got the DLL from source. As someone who occasionally has to hand out policy violations to admins who get software from unapproved sources, I despise sites like dll-files.com.
Additionally, if you'd like to understand the "why" portion of this problem and how to fix it, this article will help:

Copying the DLL from another PC source was one of the first things that I tried, but I still get the same error message. I'd also wouldn't get anything from unapproved sources, so I know what you mean... -

It's a fair point, bit of a lazy answer I'll admit, I'd be blasting the machine with a fresh image of Windows 7 or most probably completely replacing the machine at this stage if I had to spend too much time fixing it. XP has 1 month to go. That should have been my answer.Definitely try to get the DLL from source, or from a PC which got the DLL from source.

Have you tried to reinstall .NET 2.x?
I tried, but it wouldn't let me delete the current .NET on the system to try to start brand new -

I asked where you put the DLL on the broken machine. In any event, I have enough work to do here...good luck
