Seeking Advice Installing Power Toys - 0.27.1-x64

Windows 10 Pro - 2004, OS Build: 19041.685

Howdy Folks

I'm interested in trying Microsoft Power Toys and have downloaded <PowerToysSetup-0.27.1-x64.exe> 19,480,952 bytes
from GitHub - microsoft/PowerToys: Windows system utilities to maximize productivity
which advises me I need to have .NET Core 3.1 Desktop Runtime installed.

This command tells me I don't:
C:\Users\Email>dotnet --info
'dotnet' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

I'm looking for advice on how to proceed.

My appreciation goes out to all who read this post

Hi, if it needs it, the installer should download it and install it for you if it's not present already.

I have not tested this in Win 10 [ I wrote it for Win 7 but it should do ] but you can try it . . .

 NET Framework Versions Installed

[1] Click on this TenForums link => Batch Scripts / Programs.
[2] Goto the heading NET Framework Versions Installed . . .
[3] Download and Run the .bat file named NET_Installed.txt.bat.
[4] Select Option 2.

I hope this helps.
