Trying to enable .NET 3.5, and when trying to download files from Microsoft, it tells me that it was unable to complete the download, and the check my internet, even when I have internet access. Sometimes it loads part of the way, and then gives me the same message. Ideas?

Randomly tried it for the 5th time and it worked. Apparently you can also install it by entering the following in the command window:

dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFX3 /Source:d\sources\sxs /LimitAccess

But you have to replace :d with the correct drive.

Just posting in case anyone else has the same issue :)
