title: How do I remove the .NET Compact Framework from my Windows Mobile 5 device?
body: <p>I'm trying to get a number of third party applications to work on my Windows Mobile 5 smartphone.</p>
  
  <p>I've installed the latest version (3.5) of the Microsoft.NET Compact Framework, but whenever I run the apps I get an error message which states: "This application [Application Name] requires a newer version of the Microsoft .NET Compact Framework than the version installed on this device."</p>
  
  <p>Given I've supposedly successfully installed the latest version, this doesn't make sense, leading me to believe I need to remove the .NET Compact Framework and start again. (I've tried reinstalling it, but as far as I can tell there's no automated way of removing it on the device, or from my PC.)</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I need to do? Thanks!</p>
