.NET Runtime is an overall engine, cross platform code(Windows, Linux, 
macOS) and the successor(to .NET Framework)...and provides the 
environment for Framework built applications to run.
.NET Desktop Runtime is a version within .NET Runtime for running 
desktop specific applications.
  Windows Desktop Runtime is a component within .NET Desktop Runtime for 
specific Windows needs(i.e. not cross platform).
