Before re-installing, try below suggestions.

Are you sure other frameworks 2.0,3.0 3.5 already installed on your system.

Check Add/Remove programs from the Control Panel for frameworks.

Also, install .NET 3.5 SP1 as the setup of 3.5 SP1 includes .NET 2.0 SP2, 3.0 SP2.

Also, try windows updates this will ensure missing framewoks updates.

Yes I would try reinstalling VS 2010. Sometimes reinstalling is less painful then figuring out how to fix it.

hello,

Have you try to re-install or repair the VS2010?
