I am stuck with .net 4.8.03761 at registry (528049)
I need to install .net 4.7.2 for my specific project but I can't because I can't remove the .net 4.8.
Any hints?

You shouldn't need to install anything if you have .net 4.8 installed as it will run applications written for 4.7.2:
.NET Framework 4.8
The .NET Framework 4.8 is included with:
.NET Framework 4.8 can be used to run applications built for the .NET Framework 4.0 through 4.7.2.

That is your runtime. It can run .NET applications for 4.5 and up to .NET 4.8. See .NET Version compatibility for details. Support for .NET 2.0 through 3.5 and 4.0 is separate.
for my specific project
To develop for a .net target, you need an SDK for that particular target. You can have as many SKDs installed as you need.
The SDK and the runtime are not the same thing.

Download the .NET 4.7.2 SDK. Not the runtime (you already have a newer compatible runtime).
