Fatal Error - CLR error: 80004005 at during program start
A lightweight and easy-to-use password manager

I installed KeePass 2.22 on Windows 7 SP1 (2.21 had the same problem) but, I get a "KeePass.exe - Fatal error; of CLR error: 80004005. The program will now terminate". I also get this error every time I reboot.
I did uninstall 2.21 first but, I am guessing there is some residual entry in the Registry that did not get removed. I could not find anything in the Registry after I uninstall KeePass, so I am perplexed.
Any ideas?
Oops, I just noticed the Milestone, it should be KeePass_2.x
This could be a .NET directory ownership problem. The suggested fix by Robert Cotterman is:
Thanks for the response. I went through those steps twice and rebooted twice but, the error still pops up.
When I went to apply the change a window popped up stating: If you have just taken ownership of this object, you will need to close and reopen this object's properties befoe you can view or change permissions. That's why I rebooted.
Try this tool to perform the ownership change.
Another option is to uninstall all the .NET frameworks [in order of newest to oldest], then reinstall them [oldest to newest].
Our network at work is blocking that tool. I will do it from home this weekend and try it next week (I'm off on Fridays). I'll keep this updated with the results.
4/22/2013 - When I tried to download this tool from home, the link came up in an unreadable foreign language so, I abort that attempt.

I would repair / re-install .NET on your machine first.

FINAL SOLUTION: Alexanderinao and Paul, as you both suggested, doing a repair on the ./NET fixed the problem. I'm a happy camper now, thank you so much.
Now this was my first ticket in sourceforge, do I grant you guys points or kudos somehow?
Do I close this ticket or does someone else do it? I don't see an option anywhere to do so.
thanks again, this started my week on a real positive note !!
