Net Framework 3.5 Won't Install

How to install .NET Framework v3.5 offline:
​

1. Mount a Windows 8.1 Disc on your drive (ISO file will do).
2. Press Windows key + X then select Command Prompt (Admin)
3. Then enter this command:
Dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /All /Source:X:\sources\sxs /LimitAccess
4. Where "X" is your source drive,(the drive letter where you'd mount your Windows 8.1)
Make sure you change it before you press enter in CMD
5. Wait for a few minutes until it says that this operation is completed successfully.
6. Done!

 

post your command line here you used as it is to check where you are wrong.

 

1) Did you replace the /source:X:\sources\sxs with the appropriate drive letter?
2) Was that drive available when you ran the command?

 

Mount 8.1.1 iso, then run this script as admin

Spoiler

Copy and save as net35.cmd

Code:

@echo off
%windir%\system32\reg.exe query "HKU\S-1-5-19" >nul 2>&1 || goto :eof
for %%A in (D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X) do (if exist %%A:\sources\install.wim set DVD=%%A:)
set dest=%SystemDrive%\net35
if exist "%dest%" rmdir /s /q "%dest%"
mkdir "%dest%"
echo+
echo Copying Source Files...
xcopy "%DVD%\sources\sxs\*.*" "%dest%" /e >nul
echo+
DISM /Online /Enable-Feature /FeatureName:NetFx3 /All /LimitAccess /Source:"%dest%"
rmdir /s /q "%dest%"
echo+
echo ____________________________________________________________________________
echo+
echo Press any Key to Exit.
pause >nul
exit

 

nice script abbodi


btw, what's the difference between these 2 commands:

DISM /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /Source:X:\sources\sxs /LimitAccess

DISM /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /All /Source:X:\sources\sxs /LimitAccess


the "/All" turn on sub-features of .Net Fx3.5 while without "/All" not?


its better to turn on all NetFx3.5 features or only the major one? what will change really?


(pt-br language in ss)



Thanks

 

Thanks

nothing really, All switch is to enable all parent features (if any), not child ones
and NetFx3 doesn't have parent features (at least in Client editions, don't know about servers)
