This one has me scratching my head.....
Just upgraded my sons PC to win 8.1 64 bit , updated with a clean install..
We need Net 3.5 , but of course....can't download and install....
We try using control panel , windows features , but it keeps reporting that it's not connected to the internet , funnily enough , EVERY SINGLE OTHER feature works....install / uninstall....no issues....
So , off into offline mode...command prompt run as administrator
Dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFX3 /All /Source:Z:\sources\sxs /LimitAccess
Cannot run 32 bit DISM in a 64 bit OS environment....wtf!
switch directories to c:\windows\sysnative\
Windows 8 DVD is in , drive letter Z
Dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFX3 /All /Source:Z:\sources\sxs /LimitAccess
starts up , gets to 65.5% on the bar......unable to find...blah blah blah...basically says the item isn't on the DvD....
I'm stuck....hoping anyone else has any idea...if not I'm going to have to restore his old OS after a day spent installing and patching 8.0 and 8.1..
