Hello one and all

I tried a few programs that require net framework 3.5 or higher to work

NFwork 4 is a part of the operating system and these programs wont install as they dont recognise it,

I have tried installing the standalone version from microsoft but same result

It is still telling me it wont install because a more up to date version is already installed, so why cant the software locate it, is it worth rebuilding the index, maybe its not indexed

any ideas ??

email me please PValentine1965@live.co.uk

Normally Windows 8 asks you to install .net 2 + 3 and you need to be connected to the internet.
The installation happens automatically.
That's what happened on my pc, but I refused the install since I don't use such programs.
You can still manually enable it on demand.

Try to go here:
Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> (on the left) turn Windows Features on or off:
netframework.png
And enable the (first) feature from there. Make sure you have internet access, Windows will take care from there.
After a reboot or not (depends on the installer when ready), .Net 3.5 and lower should be enabled.

That should be it.

Good luck

    That's basically it.
no already tried that and just for the sake of it tried it again, 4.5 is enabled but still wont install the lower version, there are others who have had the same problem I think its an error in the program

I have tried the standalone version as well both direct from microsoft own site and through windows update

This doesn't look too good.

Try sfc /scannow in an elevated command prompt and see if it fixes something. Then try enabling .Net 3.5 again.
Don't know if it works (or if you tried it already) but let's hope it fixes something.

Let's hope this is fixed in the final release.

Thank you all I reinstalled windows 8 from a disc I made when I initially installed it and now its all good with framework 3.5

still cant get video off windows media player 12 but the other stuff works now. also attempted to put windows 7 back on but it tells me that the system can no longer support it, despite it having windows 7 when I bought it pre installed

it was a lot easier in the old days when you actually had the software with the computer on disc, , hint hint microsoft
