The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( .NET Runtime ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: Unable to open shim database version registry key - v2.0.50727.00000.

At first, I set the service to "manual"; after this last bout of error messages (two days ago), I've set it to "disabled" and will see if that helps or hinders.

Any thoughts?

The service performs it's work while the system is idle. So rebooting and continously checking to see if mscorsvw.exe is still running will not help much.

The service istself is an integral part of .NET 2.0. Hotfixes and Service Packs for .NET 2.0 may trigger the service, which will update the native images of the dependant .NET assemblies. Depending on what software using .NET 2.0 is installed, this process may take some time especially since the service is only executed while the system is idle. After it has done it's work it's startup type is set to "Manual". When the service is done you'll see an event similar to this in your application event log (the service was started at 20:41:08):

Since I always check here for a few days after Patch Tuesday and trust what's posted, I felt confident installing the .NET update I was offered (under optional software updates, not critical) because some of you assured me that the service that is installed and started goes away after another reboot.

Not true on here. Installation went fine (except for an entry in eventviewer saying that the IIS update piece couldn't install because I don't have IIS running---which is a good thing :)). Went to Admin Tools, Services, and saw that the service, .NET optimization, was running, as you'd warned. Rebooted and checked---still running.

So I rebooted again and checked---still running. Third time's a charm? Nope. Still running.

I am NOT a happy camper, as I trusted being told that the service stopped running after the first reboot.

Now what? How do I get rid of this without causing problems? The obvious is to set the service to manual or disable, but I have no way of knowing if that will cause problems, and this is a production machine. Irony is, we don't use .NET as far as I know (Acronis True Image might use it?), but I have it here so I do want to keep it updated. I have never seen this service running before with any of the previous .NET updates.

Yup! Absolutely correct. :)
I caved after a while and went with .NET for the Catalyst Control Centre.
Even the latest ATi drivers are available without the .NET Control Centre. Just the ATi drivers and the Control Panel.

This is a one-time optimization. Every time an update is applied to the .NET Framework v2.0 the .NET Runtime Optimization Service will start and run while the system is idle. It will go away when it has finished to generate/rebuild the native images of the CLR assemblies affected by the update (and assemblies with dependencies to the updated files etc., so this may take some time).

I run XP Home, SP2, .NET 2.0, and the update was not offered to me (on the Microsoft Update site), but was to others. Got any opinion on what's up with that? Thanks.

What optimization? What update? I just downloaded and installed the patch. Nothing else. Nothing odd ran later....of course I haven't rebooted...but that patch did not require reboot.

Glad to see I'm not the only paranoid one :), and that it was, indeed, just a one time thing. It disappeared from the services list as well?

I guess what bothers me is NOT necessarily things adding services, but not telling the users. I have the same issue with SpySweeper, one of my favorite programs, but the newer version now loads an always running service EVEN IF you have it set to NOT run in the background, and there's no way to turn it off permanently; setting it to "manual" doesn't interfere with doing an on-demand scan, but then it resets itself to automatic---for no functional reason, since manual works fine.

There is no Service Pack for .NET2.0. That's in the future is how I read it. I checked my file versions and I need this update and as far as I know I have the latest .NET2.0 from May.

Huh? I'm on XP SP2 and i got the update.

The impression I get from rooting around in the KB article is that if you already have SP1 for .NET 2.0, this update is not needed. If you don't, it is. At least that's the way I read it.

I'm not sure that explains why it wasn't offered (*Edit- or not offered) to both of us, but, I guess I won't tell if you won't. :hmm:

LOL, who knows. I have checked and the update does not show in my add remove like it does for norwegian, but WU says it installed. Anyway, my computer is working fine and I usually don't spend this much time troubleshooting unless something is borked. Back to having fun.

I ran that which seemed to remove all instances of .NET Framework from my computer. I then went back to windows update and reinstalled .NET Framework V.2. After that I ran windows update again and installed the .NET Framework Security patch. This time it installed. Must have been something screwy with my .NET Framework V.2. Who knows, this is MS we are talking about.
