Notes
This update release updates only the runtime files for the Microsoft .NET Framework 4. For more information about the details of this update, see the "More Information" section.
This update contains all the runtime changes from the following update:

Therefore, this update is a cumulative update. Any application built for the .NET Framework 4.01 can run on a computer that has the .NET Framework 4 and the Update 4.0.2 runtime installed. We recommend that applications built for the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0.1 be upgraded to the Update 4.0.2 runtime. However, this upgrade is optional.
We do not support any application that this update was used to build on any prerelease version of the .NET Framework 4 such as a Beta. Additionally, we recommend that any such application be upgraded to at least the Microsoft .NET Framework 4 RTM.
