Get full list of .NET framework version installed

I need to get the list of all framework versions that are installed in the computer, buy I need the full name, as it is in the Add/Remove programs. Like: "Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1" or "Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2"

is there any way to get that list (in Windows XP and 7)?

You can use the command dotnet --list-sdks in the terminal to list all installed sdks.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/how-to-detect-installed-versions?pivots=os-windows

2.1.701 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk]
3.0.100-preview5-011568 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk]
5.0.401 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk]
6.0.401 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk]
7.0.100-preview.6.22352.1 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk]
7.0.100-rc.1.22431.12 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk]

The command dotnet --list-runtimes will list the installed runtimes.

Thank, I use those links to get my answer, this was waht I did:

        string path = @"SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP";
        List<string> display_framwork_name = new List<string>();

        RegistryKey installed_versions = Registry.LocalMachine.OpenSubKey(path);
        string[] version_names = installed_versions.GetSubKeyNames();

        for (int i = 1; i <= version_names.Length - 1; i++)
        {
            string temp_name = "Microsoft .NET Framework " + version_names[i].ToString() + "  SP" + installed_versions.OpenSubKey(version_names[i]).GetValue("SP");
            display_framwork_name.Add(temp_name);
        }

        return display_framwork_name;

So my output was: "Microsoft .NET Framework v3.5 SP1" "Microsoft .NET Framework v3.0 SP2" and so on....
