Hello.So, I have an issue with.Net Framework, and I'm not sure what to do.I'll go ahead and say, first of all, I have swapped between Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 two times, returning to 8.1 after the two times of switching. I don't know if this would have any impact on my problem, but I'll mention this as a precaution.Now, the issue itself - I have Windows 4.5.2, yet I need 4.6.1 to make use of the Nexus Mod Manager program. I haven't touched the Mod Manager in a few months and a couple weeks ago I decided to make use of it again. However, after it updates it mentioned.Net Framework needing an update, so I agreed, did the update through it, and yet. The tracelog said I only have 4.5.2, and when I checked my registry it displays only the code for 4.5.2.

Microsoft.NET Framework 4.7.2 is a highly compatible, in-place update to.NET Framework 4, 4.5, 4.5.1, 4.5.2, 4.6, 4.6.1, 4.6.2, 4.7, and 4.7.1. The offline package can be used in situations in which the web installer cannot be used because of a lack of Internet connectivity. This package is larger than the web installer and does not include the language packs.
My list of Windows features I can enable/disable also lists 4.5 and not 4.6. However, my list of installed updates has the code for 4.6.1 listed.I'm not sure what the problem could be - if something is interfering with the installation process, or if it's something else such as something being missing. I have seen on another forum that this hotfix may address your issue. While it is not mentioned directly in the KB article that it should, users with Win 10 that could not install the 4.6 or 4.6.1 have reported that this fixed the issue for them.just tried the hotfix, however this did not work. The installers for 4.6 and 4.6.1 still act as though they have never been used, both Web and Offline.
The verification log with the Setup Verification tool still states that 4.6 and 4.6.1 are not installed and matches the originally posted verification log exactly, stating each item that is not installed. I don't believe 1.0 and 1.1 are necessary obviously, considering my OS is Windows 8.1, although if it is due to one of those items being missing I will feel like a fool. XXBut in all seriousness, the hotfix did not help the issue - even after restarting as it suggests doing after installing the hotfix.
