Trouble running the .EXE - framework initialization error

[nd1391]

whenever i try to launch the .exe i get an error pop up that reads:

(the window reads) - Honorbuddy.exe - .NET Framework Initialization Error
"To run this application, you first must install one of the following versions of the .NET Framework: v4.0.30319"

Contact your application publisher for instruction about obtaining the appropriate version of the .NET Framework."

I don't know why this is. I am running Windows XP version 2002.

any advice?
