CelticFrost Posted May 31, 2010 ID:259745 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Im getting a msg at the end of a Windows update saying that one of the following could not be fully installed. Its the Microsoft .Network 3.5 SP1 and .Net framework family update for 2.0 3.5. Dont know if these are crucial or not but when I close out the update after getting that msg the yellow shield with the ! on it is still on bottom right so I clicked it again and says one update available and its the same one. Tryed it again and did same thing. Thanks for any insight on this in advance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkSnakeKobra Posted June 1, 2010 ID:259753 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Hi CelticFrost,By Microsoft .Network 3.5 SP1 do you mean Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5 SP1? If so you can download the standalone installation here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CelticFrost Posted June 1, 2010 Author ID:259755 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Yes buttons thats it, that something I need? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkSnakeKobra Posted June 1, 2010 ID:259756 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Unless you run certain programs then it's not really needed. Programs like Paint.net, some nero products, Visual Studio and others require it to run. I think you will be fine without it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CelticFrost Posted June 1, 2010 Author ID:259759 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Ok thank you.

DarkSnakeKobra Posted June 1, 2010 ID:259762 Share Posted June 1, 2010 No problem.Do you have any reason to believe you are infected? Also what antivirus software are you running? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CelticFrost Posted June 1, 2010 Author ID:259768 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Dont think im infected, just did a post on here bout couple weeks ago for a Google redirect problem and did all that stuff with Combofix and some other progs, so think I should be clean. Just ran a scan today with MB and cam back 0. Im running avast antivirus free. LoL I see your from Iowa, Altoona Ia here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkSnakeKobra Posted June 1, 2010 ID:259769 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Sweet. Muscatine here. Hmm, have you tried disabling avast during updates? Sometimes security software can interfere with them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CelticFrost Posted June 1, 2010 Author ID:259788 Share Posted June 1, 2010 it worked!! Thank you very much!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkSnakeKobra Posted June 1, 2010 ID:259789 Share Posted June 1, 2010 You very welcome. Glad it worked for you.Anti-viruses/firewalls tend to be cause in many cases. Just make sure to turn those off during updates. But don't forget to turn them back on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Spragg Posted June 15, 2010 ID:268172 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Been having the same problem with KB974417, 979909 & 982168 for days now. Doesn't matter if I ask Windows to install when I turn off, or try and install it on demand from the system tray, or from the Windows Update site ... same result every time. All through the rigmarole, get to "Installation complete" one way or another, but always end up with the same update back in the system tray. Groundhog Day and no mistake.Have tried searching other fora. The most comprehensive and explicit advice I found was here:http://forums.cnet.com/5208-10149_102-0.html?threadID=262366and I followed it precisely, but it didn't help. As a result of this thread I tried disabling Avast! during installation, but that didn't help either.The only other security software I'm currently running is MBAM.Have you any other suggestions, Buttons? (Incidentally, I much preferred you as a human than a taco shell). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
exile360 Posted June 15, 2010 ID:268182 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Have you tried downloading the updates directly from Microsoft instead of using Windows Update? Also, are all of these updates for the .NET Framework? If they are then you should take a look here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Spragg Posted June 15, 2010 ID:268186 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Hi Samuel,Yes, they are a triumvirate of .NET updates. I don't think I have tried downloading them directly from Microsoft. I have tried getting to them via Control Panel - Windows Security Centre and that didn't help.Thanks for the link, I'll take a good look and see if it helps.

exile360 Posted June 15, 2010 ID:268190 Share Posted June 15, 2010 Yes, .NET can be a real bugger when it doesn't want to install. That's why that tool exists. Aaron Stebner is an MS MVP who has done a LOT of research and work on the subject and his tool more often than not will correct .NET installation and removal problems .

mountaintree16 Posted June 26, 2010 ID:275063 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Hey Andy,I was just wondering if you were able to get this resolved or not?I also had an issue with the .net 1.1 update not installing... With some help from Exile, I ended up just uninstalling it, reinstalling it, and updating until there were no more updates. I had no issues after re-installing and checking for updates.

Andy Spragg Posted July 1, 2010 ID:278132 Share Posted July 1, 2010 I was just wondering if you were able to get this resolved or not?Hi, sorry for delay in reply. I had taken this tab out of active service as it seemd to have gone moribund.No, I wasn't able, yet I have an open MS support ticket at the moment and I've been three times round that loop without success too. Between my graphics blackouts, and my problems with re-enabling Avast shields after disabling them, and this, it's all getting a bit tedious not to say a lot timeconsuming I am starting to wonder if Avast is implicated in the .NET thing. Specifically, if the shields aren't disabling properly when I disable them. I speculate thusly because they never re-enable cleanly afterwrads, see:http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=61366.0 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
