    Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8.1 is not supported by Windows 7 and will not install.

    And if you try to install it in Windows 10 or Windows 11, an alert will tell you that it is already installed.

    You got your answer and even more than you asked with full explanation. Why do you complain? ;)

    Why .NET have to Bypass?

    How long are Updates for Windows 7 still available?

    Because it, too, checks for ESU license.

    At least to January 2023, when ESU year 3 ends. ESU year 4 to 6 already appeared in the licenses, though.

    If the ESU program is not extended for another three years, has anyone looked into Windows Embedded POSReady 7 updates possibly being installed until October of 2024?

    Afaik BypassESU works with Windows Embedded POSReady 7. But you have to download and install the update packages manually, the auto updater will not work.

    The following September patches installed perfectly:

    Kb5017397 Servicing Stack
    Kb5017361 Quality update
    Kb5017036 4.8 Net update

    So far running good, haven't noticed any problems or bugs yet.

    For the very first time since the Bypass came out, I was unable to install one of the updates, namely the one for .NET framework 4.8 (Kb5017036).

    I got it through WU, but the install failed, as was the case when I tried to install it manually. I think it's important to mention that this only happened on one of my six Win 7 computers.

    Let me say here, I don't think the problem has anything to do withe the Bypass.

    I won't bore you with the details of the error messages. What I'd like to do at this point is simply uninstall .NET Framework 4.8 and reinstall it.

    On Win7 the process seems pretty straightforward, but apparently it can lead to bigger problems, and in some cases, it can't be reinstalled. I need it, though, to run a program called Mail Washer, which I use every day.

    Does anyone have any ideas or comments? Thank you.

    Try one of the standalone .NET48 bypass tools, linked at in the OP.

    Looks like a corrupt download or failing drive/ram/oc.

    Later versions of windows (8+) include the CLR 4 (.NET 4.x) as "Windows feature", which makes removing/reinstalling it messy or impossible, since parts of Windows require it. This is not true for Windows 7, which only includes CLR 2 (.NET 2.0-3.5) as a "Windows feature". You may have seen Windows 10-centric literature bring up this topic in their typical fashion of assuming every mention of the word "Windows" equals Windows 10. This kind of misinformation is widespread on blog sites and MSDN alike, so it is good to practice skepticism and scrutiny for any information that refers to "Windows" without mentioning version.

    .NET 4.x is completely optional on Windows 7. You can uninstall/repair/reinstall it at will as many times as you desire.
    Control Panel > Program and Features > Microsoft .NET Framework 4.8
    I'm a newbie user so I can't post links, but you can search for ".net framework 4.8 offline installer" or ".net framework repair tool" to help you.

    You're a genius!!!!

    I had an old external USB 3.0 drive attached to that machine. I know it's not in such good shape, but I would have never thought of associating it with the problem.

    I turned it off, ran the Bypass, and as we say, the update installed "slicker'n snot."

    Thank you very much Enthousiast.

    I don't want to sound obsequious, but the time and effort you (and Abbodi1406) devote to helping desperate people like me makes this list one of the truly valuable places on the web.

    My most sincere thanks. Stay healthy!

    Thank you very much for taking the time to reply and the valuable information you provided.

    Fortunately, as I've mentioned, with Enthousiast's kind help, I was able to isolate "the" problem and apply "the" solution.

    Could you please explain what happens when you try it?

    Do you get an error message? If so, what does it say?

    And which version of the .NET Framework are you trying to update, 4.7, 4.8???

    Are you trying it from Windows Update, or have you also tried downloading the file and installing it manually?

    And are you using the "general" Bypass or the one specifically for the .NET framework?

    Es gibt viele Leute hier, die bereit sind Ihnen zu helfen. Aber nur zu schreiben "geht nicht" macht es unmöglich was vernünftiges anzubieten. Es geht schon, und viele Teilnehmer hier haben es schon geschafft.

    Ich habe auch ein Problem mit dem .NET Framework gehabt, aber ich habe ein bißchen erklärt, und es hat gereicht für Enthousiast was zu erklären, dass mir geholfen hat meine Lösung zu finden.

    Wie man so schön sagt: "Geht nicht gibt's nicht".

    I have a Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 with all the ESU updates installed without a glitch. Never in 3 years I have any trouble. It was activated with Windows 7 Loader Daz 2.2.2. Suddenly today it appears the notification that is not original. I wanted to reactivate but it can´t. It shows the following: Notification Reason: 0xC004F057

    I have copied one image and after a few minutes it appears again. And the image was one week old without any trouble.

    Can anyone please help me what to do.

    Thanks
