Unable to Install any .NET frameworks on win7 pro SP1

[edwarde16]

Hi there, I was troubleshooting getting an update installed (KB4535102) and tried the normal routes to to try and fix the .NET framework (.NET Framework repair tool) and ended up just uninstalling them and in an attempt to fix it. This was catastrophic as I can no longer install any .NET framework at all.

I've tried all the installers (both web and offline) and they all result in error 0x80070643.

I've tried the some of the troubleshooting methods mentioned in this thread ([SOLVED] - Can't install any .Net Framework on Windows 7 Pro Sp1) but have had no luck.

Any ideas would be much appreciated as im basically out of options.

Hello and welcome,

Follow the instructions below to run a scan with the System Update Readiness Tool (SURT) and provide a log.

1. Download SURT for your system. (Windows 7 SP1 x64)
2. Once downloaded, execute the installer, and go through the installation (this process can take around 15-20 minutes).
3. On completion, a log will be created in C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.log.
4. Attach this log to your next reply.

Alternatively, if these instructions are unclear for you, you can follow the tutorial below.

Hi,

Tried following the tutorial but for some reason the checksur executable wasn't initiating the process and was terminating even after running at an elevated level. I downloaded the .msu from the update catalog and just executed that instead and I believe the process worked.

I apologize in advance if I majorly screwed up somewhere along the line, I just wasn't quite sure if I needed to download all files or if I could just run it as is.

I went ahead and used the other tools to gather the relevant log information. Hopefully something in here should shed some light.

Thanks again for your help.
