New .Net update this morning


Seems the MWDR and .Net go hand-in-hand.

Yep. The .NET Desktop Runtime is for Windows only, and it includes the .NET Runtime, which can be installed on other operating systems as well.

My last install, in December, 1 app and 1 game insisted on installing .NET 3.5. According to these two entities, 3.5 wasn’t available on the system. I don’t know if I had to enable it in windows or if it just wasn’t there. So I let them install.
I think some program installers don't look to see what .NET version is installed and just ask to install the needed version. I say this because I have had programs ask and even though I clicked no the program installed and ran fine.

It should be available as an optional feature:

.NET Framework Feature.JPG

Or from an elevated command prompt, you can check using:

Code:
DISM /Online /Get-FeatureInfo /FeatureName:NetFx3
DISM /Online /Get-FeatureInfo /FeatureName:NetFx4-AdvSrvs

Or, specifically for .NET Framework 3.5:

Code:
reg query "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v3.5" /v Install

Source: Determine which .NET Framework versions are installed - .NET Framework

Curious. So why would a "Security Update" be found in Optional Updates??

(I'm not asking you to explain that. I'm just wondering about it.)
i don't know but it did. . LOL
