Great job!
i did it with the added line on properties and it is installed successfully but i dont see the mssg on windows update history
None. I did not modify any packages. If you're referring to how I've gotten the custom action dll: just by watching the file activity using sysinternals procmon and capturing that dll quickly during execution of msiexec.
Can you think of any difference between the way the failed machine is set up and the two on which you succeeded?
It's sort of ironic that M$ not only created the problem but also provided the tool to solve it. Great job vinzf!
The reason for that Dotnet update installing fine on systems without 4.x is actually very simple: It is a collection KB bundling update packages for all versions 3.5 and up. Only the 4.x packages are booby-trapped, on systems without 4.x they are not getting executed at all because they don't apply. However, once you install 4.x to such systems, KB4556399 (or the SecOnly one) will be re-offered and failing, then.
