      The use of .exe.config file in Windows Slave Installer Module has prevented WinSW from running on machines without .NET FX 4+ installed since 2013. No one has reported that this is a problem in the past years. Instead, there are only issues regarding using .NET FX 2.0 executables on newer platforms.

      Therefore, I propose the following actions:

      • Safely switch to the .NET FX 4.0 executable in Windows Slave Installer Module.
      • Re-investigate the need to use .NET FX 2.0 executables in Jenkins master and slaves.

          [JENKINS-61862] Consider removing the use of WinSW.NET2.exe

          I agree this is something required. I will create a new EPIC for Windows Support updates and add this ticket there
