Paginated reports - installation of Report Builder and problems with .NET Framework

I'm trying to install Report Builder to create Paginated Reports. I get a message that I need .NET Framework 4.7.2. I have a higher version 4.8.xxxx and cannot downgrade.

 

How can I fix this? We have a 3rd party IT company who need to install all programs so I need a description to give them.
