Is there a way to find out installed versions of the .NET framework by using a PowerShell command?

The installed .NET frameworks are listed in the registry. There is a built-in registry provider in PowerShell, so you can query it like you'd query a filesystem path:

gci "hklm:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP"

    Look at this [question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3487265/powershell-to-return-versions-of-net-framework-on-a-machine). Find the answer from Jakul and you will see that the newer version are in subs and you need to use -recurse to find them. – Matt Sep 19 '14 at 15:56
