Re: [sOLUTION] You cannot install KB928366 (.Net Framework 1.1 sec

 

I downloaded a one month trial version of WINRAR. But I suggest you uncheck

many of the boxes during the installation, as otherwise it tends to put

itself on every menu on your computer.

 

Make a new folder so that when you click on "extract to..." so it knows

where to put the contents.

 

Actually once I had got rid of my original .NET stuff, I just ran

dotnetfix.exe and it installed without any apparent need to be extracted

anyway.

Hi,

 

You can also extract the files directly by using this command:

 

dotnetfx.exe /C /T:c:\<yourfolder>

Hi,

 

1. Put dotnetfx.exe in a folder whose name is not too long to type (for

example, c:\dotnetfx)

2. Start | Programs | Accessories | Command prompt . This opens a command

prompt window.

3. Enter "cd c:\dotnetfx" (without the quotes)

4. The command line prompt should now be "c:\dotnetfx>"

5. Enter "dotnetfx.exe /C /T:c:\dotnetfx" without the quotes. The files

should then be extracted in the same folder as dotnetfx.exe.

 

Then proceed as described in the initial post.

 

Regards.

Please be patient with me. I'm not familiar with commands.

 

When I select Start, Run, cmd I get the command window but it's already

got C:\Documents and Settings\username typed in.

 

My copy of dotnetfx.exe is located at E:\Download\XPUpdateFiles and I'm

trying to extract it to e:\Download\dotnetfix

 

What do I type at the command prompt?

It installed and didn't ask for the extra files. Windows update didn't

list the .net update so everything seems to be OK. Thanks for being so

patient!

Re: [sOLUTION] You cannot install KB928366 (.Net Framework 1.1 sec

 

I have been following this thread since it started. I finally succeeded in

re-installing Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1. However, I had to manually

remove all vestiges of it in the registry before it would re-install and

successfully apply the KB928366 update.

 

I was wondering, is there is any advantage to installing 2.0?

How do I know whether I need the x86 or the x64 version?

Plan on getting anything that uses .NET Framework 2.0?

How about .NET Framework 3.0?

 

Do you have a 64 bit OS or a 32bit OS?

(You'd know if you had a 64 bit OS.)

Re: [sOLUTION] You cannot install KB928366 (.Net Framework 1.1 sec

 

Unfortunately this approach didn't work for me. I tried it 3 times without

any success. I wrote to Microsoft and they got me to download, install and

run the Microsoft Windows Installer CleanUp utility, remove all the .NET

Framework applications and updates and then reinstall. Now all seems to work.

 

Thanks for you help anyways!

you could get izarc instead of zipcentral because zipcentral only

opens zip files but izarc can open self-extracting archives

I've tried just about all I want to try too. I've spent far too much time on

this. It's Microsoft's turn to do something. Anything....a critical update

*If* they were going to come up with a solution that did not involve the

end-user doing something - it would have been done by now - I think. It

*might* still happen by the second Tuesday of next month - but if you are

depending soley on that - just take your computer to someone who has the

skills to fix it and pay for it - because the chances (as I see it) are slim

that there will be any sort of fix beyond those offered throughout these

newsgroups.

 

I could be incorrect - it could still happen - but as time passes between

the original incident (July 10, 2007) and now (July 23, 2007) -- it becomes

less and less likely there will be any fully automated solution for you.

 

(1) You need to repair .NET Framework 1.1 - obliterating all remnants of it

and installing it/patching it fully.

 

How to troubleshoot Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 installation issues

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/824643

- Unregister and then reregister Windows Installer (See article)

- Download/install/use:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=7A4EFC33-0343-4EE4-B0C4-97BD16967A09&displaylang=en

- Manually remove and then reinstall the .NET Framework 1.1 (See the 824643

Article)

For the articles below, follow the "IT professionals" link and find the

download for your OS.

- Download/Install http://support.microsoft.com/kb/867460/

- Download/Install http://support.microsoft.com/kb/886903/

- Download/Install http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928366/

 

Reboot as needed and at the end.

 

(2) You need to repair .NET Framework 2.0 - obliterating all remnants of it

and installing it/patching it fully.

How to troubleshoot Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 installation issues

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/908077/

- Unregister and then reregister Windows Installer (See article)

- Manually remove and then reinstall the .NET Framework 2.0 (See Article)

For the articles below, follow the "IT professionals" link and find the

download for your OS.

- Download/Install http://support.microsoft.com/kb/917283/

- Download/Install http://support.microsoft.com/kb/922770/

- Download/Install http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928365/

 

Reboot as needed and at the end.

 

(3) You need to repair .NET Framework 3.0 - obliterating all remnants of it

and installing it/patching it fully.

 

Unfortunately - there is no particular article pertaining to .NET Framework

3.0 that I could find. I have not had issues, however, just going into the

Control Panel --> Add or Remove Programs and just locating/removing it and

its patches. I suggest you do the same and then reboot...

 

Download/install using this distributable package:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=10CC340B-F857-4A14-83F5-25634C3BF043&displaylang=en

 

Reboot as needed and at the end.

 

(4) Cleanup your updates system...

 

Get Dial-a-Fix:

http://wiki.djlizard.net/Dial-a-fix

 

Use its options to fix:

- Windows Installer

- Windows Update

- All the Registration Center options

 

Turn off the "Empty System32\Catroot 2"

Do NOT do "Flush SoftwareDistribution".

 

Then click "GO"... May take a while.

 

Reboot when it is done...

 

(5) Visit http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ and scan for updates. Choose

the critical updates you need and install them. Do not bother getting

hardware updates (unless you happen to have some Microsoft hardware

installed) and "Optional Updates" are *usually* just what the name infers -

but feel free to see if you want any of the "Optional" ones.

 

(6) Come back here and let us know how you came out...

 

 

This has now come to light from a poster (Ray&Fran) and should be noted:

 

Got everything installed but KB928367? This is caused by corrupted

..NET Framework 1.0 components. Simply hide the incorrect update...

RE: [sOLUTION] You cannot install KB928366 (.Net Framework 1.1 securit

 

I had XP SP2 and Net Framework 1.1 My PC started out by freezing up when I

tried to install it. Got a number of error messages: 0xE0434f4D,

0x80242007, 0x800703E9. I finally just upgraded to Net Framework 2.0. Then

installed updates for 2.0 which included KB928366 for 1.1 Everything

updated smoothly, and the whole problem went away. I have no idea what 1.0

or 2.0 even do!

[Guest ynne1]

Re: [sOLUTION] You cannot install KB928366 (.Net Framework 1.1 sec

 

Appreciate everyone's attempts to assist on this issue. I have XP Pro, SP2,

and .NET 1.1 and 2.0 are listed on the Add/Remove List. KB928365 always

fails installation, KB928366 always states "Done" but then reappears to be

reinstalled.

 

I tried Patrick's suggestion (for 1.1) using the 2.0 files and KB928365 as

he indicated this should work for all versions, but I received an error

message from Windows Installer, "The installation source for this product is

not available. Verify that the source exists and that you can access it." I

downloaded Win Installer again (v3.1.0.0) and ran - indicated install was

fine. Tried Patrick's method again, same error. Thought about uninstalling

Win Installer and reloading but didn't like the warning message of multiple

programs potentially becoming unusable, so I wasn't sure if it is safe to

perform that.

 

Moved on to Shenan Stanley's suggestions. I couldn't even get beyond the

first step of unregistering Win Installer, receiving the following error msg,

"Windows cannot find 'msiexec/unregister'. Make sure you typed the name

correctly and then try again..." So I thought I'd try Dial-a-fix to just fix

Win Installer initially. It went through the steps of unregistering and

re-registering seemingly fine and did not indicate any errors. I then moved

on to try to repair the .NET Framework 2.0, but upon right-clicking on the

cache'd Win Inst file 2.0 RTL x86 enu and asking for repair, I received the

same error msg produced with Patrick's suggestion.

 

I then tried to perform a manual removal of the 2.0 Framework, but once

again received the same error message when I asked it to uninstall instead of

repair, "The installation source for this product is not available..."

 

So I'm at a loss as to how to proceed, now 8 hours into trying to fix this

issue. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

When going through the steps found in the solution I gave from the KB

article for .NET Framework 2.0... Did you try...

RE: [sOLUTION] You cannot install KB928366 (.Net Framework 1.1 sec

 

I am just replying to one of the messages in this thread. I am having trouble

with KB928366.

 

I am following the instruction on the manual remove and then reinstall the

..NET Framework 1.1.

Well, I can't delete the mscoree.dll file and I can't delete v1.1.4322

folder.

 

What do I do now?
