Solution

register the dotnet framework again. be sure of the specific version.
you will be getting it in C:\Sysroot(it could be windows\system32) all the installed .net versions are listed out there. go the correct folder and execute the "aspnet_regiis -i" from command prompt. it worked for me.

C:\SYSROOT\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727
\aspnet_regiis -i
