Microsoft.NET Framework 4 (Standalone Installer) Microsoft.NET Framework 4 Client Profile (Standalone Installer) Note that (2) the size is 48.0 MB and the (3) the size is 41.0 MB. It's not the REAL.Net 4 Full Standalone.:(I want that installer in a usb pen drive because my app need of features of.Net 4 Full Framework (like MSBuild) and I.
If .NET Framework is broken or anything they let you download their installer (offline/web) but it doesn't work, you just bounce back a message that current or later version is already installed and it stops you from reinstalling.
I need this to fix broken fonts issue after latest Creators update.
Reference to my previous question: PowerShell font Terminal is broken after Windows 10 Creators update
And read one of the answers:
That repair tool legit does nothing and it also tells you to reinstall net framework, but its not even possible to do it on Windows 10.
Also there is no .NET framework under installed programs or updates or anywhere to uninstall it.
Running the .NET Cleaning Utility and unticking .NET Framework 3.5 and 4 under Programs and Features still blocks from installing from offline/web installer:
By nothing I mean at the end of the day I fail to run the web or offline installer of net framework 4/4.5/4.6
UPDATE: Irrelevant now, latest updates fixed the fonts error.
The .NET framework is a Windows Feature (as of Windows 8 or even as far back as 7) found under 'Programs and Features'. I have had some good success with the following procedure:
Last resort measure: Install one of the Visual Studio development environments (Express edition is good enough.) This also forces a refresh of .NET.
If that doesn't fix the problems nothing else will.
Because it is an integrated feature of Windows a really broken .NET environment is basically a broken Windows installation needing a re-install of Windows.
The Windows 10 Creators update includes the .net framework 4.7, so you can't reinstall it.
The software you try to install doesn't know that fact and checks the entry Version
under the keys:
for .net 4.6.
And in Creators update the version is 4.7.02046
, which the tools don't support.
So fake the .net version and change the Version entry to 4.6.01586
, install the tool and after setup, change the version back to 4.7.02046
.
Use Programs and Features, click on everything that starts with 'Microsoft .NET,' (newest versions first) and Uninstall.
Remove traces of it by using .NET Framework Setup Cleanup Utility .
Reinstall it from off-line installer or use DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
to re-update it.
Try installing this official version.
You can download Windows 10 ISO of the build you want, or have the new one.
Get a tool called NTlite. You don't need the license for this tool.
Copy all files to C:folder from mounted Windows 10 ISO.
Now use NTlite to remove specific only Net Framework 4+ in components.To be able to do that use the compatible settings to turn of the locked system.
Now just start a setup in the folder of edited Windows. And keep settings and apps for just a fresh install of Windows system files. It will also keep your windows activated without need for reactivation.
That way you are able to install Net Framework 4.5+. But unable for 4.0.
