Guest muffet Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 Hi, I run a Windows xp sp2 2003. I think I am one of the lucky ones? so far I have been able to download the items below automatically. I seem to have Net Framework 3.0 Hot Fix Net Framework 3.0 [KB932471] Net Framework 2.0 Security update Net Framework 2.0 [KB928365] Net Framework 1.1 Hot Fix Net Framework 1.1[KB928366] Installed I now think I should have Net Framework 1.0 [KB 928367] Not sure if I should have any Hot Fixes with this? Could someone please confirm if this is right as when I scan M/S updates page it says that there are none to be downloaded. If I have understood rightly I will have to download this manually(If I need it). I am trying to keep on top of all the updates: but find it most confusing. I am like most I dred the beginning of the month -- thanks: muffet

Guest Darrell Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 You do NOT need .Net Framework 1.0.

Guest vet@ponyexpressvet.com Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 The windows update for .Net Framework has created considerable problems for a lot of users. Those that have contacted Microsoft prior to July 12 or July 13 were given bad information on how to fix the update. First, a bit of history: The update is for .Net Framework 1.1 service pack 1, not the original installation of .Net Framework 1. The service pack was an optional update that many users did not upload. Hence the latest security update was doomed to fail. The security update did not search for the right version prior to installation so either you got a installation failure message or it "updated sucessfully" only to reappear as a needed update a few minutes later. If you were unfortunate enough to add .Net Framework version 2 or 3 without uploading your service pack to version 1 your headaches just got worse. (Please note: there is a service pack out for version 2 and the service pack for version 3 will be released this fall). The fix advocated by level one support was to reset the update catalog by clearing the software distribution folder and reseting the catroot2 folder. Of course you had to go stop a few services in order to rename the folder so the process seemed a bit complicated but if you took that route you were on a fools errand. (Level one support has since been re-educated). Downloading the files directly off the web site did not resolve the issue either, unless you got lucky and added service pack 1 during the process and did not have version 2 or 3 on your computer. So, here is the fix: Get rid of all the .Net Framework files and reinstall them one by one, updating each one as you go. You need Windows Install Clean Up utitility to clear the installer files, then you need the dotnetfix clean up utility to get rid of all of the versions of .Net Framework, then you need to upload and install each version of Framework, including the service packs, one by one until you are done, then do the updates. If you only need version 1.1, then there is no reason to download version 2 and 3 along with their numerous updates. For those few are foiled at the first step: that is you run the Windows Install Cleanup utility and you do not find any .Net Framework files listed, then you need to download the 1.1 package and install it. That simply places it in the windows installer cache so it shows up in the utility so you can then turn right around and delete it. Here are the crib notes provided to the Microsoft support staff: Download Windows Install Cleanup Utility by following the article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301 and remove any other versions of .Net framework showing up in cleanup utility. Also download the Net Framework cleanup tool from http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2005/04/08/406671.aspx and you can download the tool from the left side of the page under the section "USEFUL TOOLS". DOTNETFX (1.1) http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=262D25E3-F58... ..NET FRAMEWORK 1.1 Service pack 1 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=a8f5654f-088... go to windowsupdate.microsoft.com and do the updates kb928366.. Good luck to all and please spread the word, Microsoft Support is overwhelmed atm. BTW: The windowsupdate.log and all of the usual stuff has no useful information for this problem, this little update snafu was a doozy! There is more to the story but enough said for now.
Guest robie Posted July 20, 2007 Posted July 20, 2007 But there is still no fix for the hibernation feature, even if you get the update in, correct? -robbie -- ~robbie "muffet" wrote: > Hi, > I run a Windows xp sp2 2003. > > I think I am one of the lucky ones? so far I have been able to download the > items below automatically. > > I seem to have Net Framework 3.0 > Hot Fix Net Framework 3.0 [KB932471] > Net Framework 2.0 > Security update Net Framework 2.0 [KB928365] > Net Framework 1.1 > Hot Fix Net Framework 1.1[KB928366] Installed > > I now think I should have Net Framework 1.0 [KB 928367] > Not sure if I should have any Hot Fixes with this? > > Could someone please confirm if this is right as when I scan M/S updates > page it says that there are none to be downloaded. > If I have understood rightly I will have to download this manually(If I need > it). > > I am trying to keep on top of all the updates: but find it most confusing. > I am like most I dred the beginning of the month > -- > thanks: muffet
