I was having this same problem & have been all evening. I went to this

link & re downloaded the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1 &

I think i know what is happening, the 1.1 update won't apply because we

already have a newer version (2.0). Rightly so the install fails. The

solutions offered here mostly involve removing the newer version and

installing the old version, which means of course that the update will work.

I think the question is, why is Microsoft pushing out a 1.1 patch to

computers with version 2 already installed ? I think the best solution is to

tick the "don't ask me again" box and cancel it.

I am having opposite problem. I have successfully downloaded version 1.1 a

dozen times. Prior to this was version 2, both on same day different time of

day, july 10th . Do we really need service pack 1 if we have service pack 2

installed? Version 2 is for service pack 2 and 1.1 is for service pack 1.

I got the same problem, solved it like so:

 

1) Download the update (KB928366) from the Microsoft Download website:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=281fb2cd-c715-4f05-a01f-0455d2d9ebfb&DisplayLang=en

When running the update it asks for a file called "netfx.msi".

 

2) To get "netfx.msi" (if it's not on your harddrive), download the

Microsoft .NET Framework Version 1.1 Redistributable Package from

here:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=262d25e3-f589-4842-8157-034d1e7cf3a3&DisplayLang=en

This is a file called "dotnetfx.exe". Use WinRAR to open the file.

Among the file in the archive you'll see "netfx.msi". Extract this

file somewhere.

 

3) Point the KB928366-updater to the file "netfx.msi" you just

extracted. Installation will continue normal and the update will

finish without an error.

 

Hope this might be of some help!

Here is EXACTLY what you do to solve this problem for Windows XP 32

bit. If you happen to have a rarer 64 bit version, server OS, or

SOMETHING else follow the same general instructions but get the

version of the files appropriate for your system but first, Microsoft

has pissed me off beyond belief. I looked in my log and this same

thing happened 6/2006...thanks MSFT for torturing us again this year.

I thought it was a familiar feeling...nice branding...this is a huge

humiliation for their .NET team in my opinion or perhaps we should

start calling them the .NOT team...anyway....

 

Steps:

1) Go to the control panel and select the add/remove software tool

then TRY and remove everything with .NET in the name. If you can

remove everything go to step 3. If you cannot remove everything go to

step 2.

 

2) Go and download the windows installer clean up tool at:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301

 

run the windows installer clean up tool and BE CAREFUL to only select

the .NET items from the list and remove them. Note: this will likely

leave the names as "dead links" in the Add/Remove Software list

(ahhh ...Microsoft thoroughness at its best) but not to worry they

will do no harm and will get fixed when we finish. It's possible to

clean them up but let's stay out of the registry :-)

 

3) Go and get the file "dotnetfx.exe" this is ".NET 1.1" from:

 

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=262D25E3-F589-4842-8157-034D1E7CF3A3&displaylang=en

 

install it.

 

4) Go and get the file "NDP1.1sp1-KB867460-X86.exe" this is the ".NET

1.1 service pack 1" from: my personal website (JUST KIDDING,

RELAX...get everything of course from a microsoft.com domain)

 

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=A8F5654F-088E-40B2-BBDB-A83353618B38&displaylang=en

 

install it.

 

5) Install the SECURITY patch, the dreaded KB928366, we have all grown

to hate. You can install it from the Windows Update program (be sure

to ONLY select the KB928366 patch and NOTHING else, we dont want to

put back 2.0 or 3.0 yet). It's OK go ahead and click ...it will be

alright...you can do it...it's just one more time... :-)

 

6) Re-run the Windows Update and you can add back in .NET 2.0 and 3.0

 

7) Post to thank me...

 

Now WHY hasn't Microsoft posted instructions yet? .... What is UP?!

 

Good night!

Hello!

 

Any particular reason why it would not be a good idea to

uninstall .net 1.1 and .net 2.0 and then install .net 3.0 which does

not need any service patch?

 

Thanks,

I was also having the same problem with Windows Update. Tried

everything from completely uninstalling 1.1 to editing the registry,

etc. What a waste of time.

Finally realized that maybe Windows Update was the problem.

Here is what I did that worked! I run Win2k pro.

First I turned off all virus, spyware and firewalls programs!!

Then I downloaded, saved to my computer and reinstalled NetFramework

1.1 (dotnetfx.exe)

Next I downloaded, saved to my computer and reinstalled NetFramework

1.1 SP patch (NDP1.1sp1-KB867460-X86.exe)

Next I downloaded, saved to my computer and installed Netframework 1.1

security update KB928366....the one that kept failing... (NDP1.1sp1-

KB928366-X86.exe)

Rebooted, let Windows update do its thing and BINGO all is well.

Somehow, trying to perform this update from the Microsoft servers just

wouldn't work, but if I save all to my harddrive and turned everything

off, it updated without any problems.

Good luck.

I too have had many attempted installations of this update.

 

I finally downloaded the update and tried update directly with nojoy BUT got

details indicating the update was searching for netfx.msi (in default windows

document folder location for the administrator account).

 

I found the original dotfx.exe.. extracted the netfx.msi.. put that into

folder with the KB928366 update (NDP1.1sp1-KB928366-X86.exe) and it installed

(FINALLY !!)

 

I then had to reboot (due to the continuing explorer lockup) and the auto

install for this update showed up. So I clicked on the update shield and it

now installed (re-installed) sucessfully as well. and NO FURTHER Update

Notices.

 

SOMETHING about needing the netfx.msi in the same folder as the update

worked here anyways.

George,

I was also troubled by this dreaded KB928366 update refusing to install.

I think Microsoft haven't do all their homework!

Thanks for your solution to this problem.

You're an Ace!

No you're not missing anything. Microsoft is. The screwed up and know it.

 

As I painfully learned today, this is a common problem. Free Microsoft

security support has been swamped with phone calls at 866-727-2338.

Fortunately they're being very nice about it and walk you through the steps

to overcome the installation problems for the ,Net 1.1 and .Net 2.0 security

updates issued July 10, 2007. The bizarre nature of this is that tech

support told me that these updates work fine if you do not already have .net

framework 1.1 or .net framework 2.0 installed -- heck, why would you update

them if you don't have them already installed? Such is the joy of dealing

with tech support overseas at 2 a.m. their time.

 

Also you need to keep the 3 versions of .net framework on your computer

(1.1, 2.0, and 3.0) -- they are not cumulative. Different applications

require different versions of .net framework to function.

 

I'll try to repeat their step by step instructions so you don't have to

call. It worked fine on my Windows XP Pro, SP2 computer it did not work on

my wife' similar computer.

 

Read through them first before you do anything -- especially the caution at

the end.

 

The steps from Microsoft Security Tech Support and from Aaron Stebner's

Weblog at upnet.notlong.com -- Microsoft Tech Support actually took me there

first.

 

(1) Try to perform a standard uninstall of the .net framework for which you

could not install the July 10 security update. Of course, you do this in the

Control Panel's Add-Remove Programs.

 

(2) If this fails to completely remove the .net framework you've targeted,

then you'll want to download the tool from Stebner's Weblog -- this is the

tool that Microsoft Tech Support uses and recommends. The file name is

dotnetfx_cleanup_tool.zip . Unzip the file and run it. You will get to choose

which versions (1.0, 1.1, 2.0) of .net framework you want to uninstall and

clean up. While Mr. Stebner warns against simply uninstalling the .net

frameworks, Microsoft Tech Support had me run this tool without first

attempting the standard uninstall. On my computer this worked just fine.

 

Stebner warns:

There are a couple of very important caveats that you should read before

using this tool to cleanup .NET Framework bits on your machine:

1. You should try to perform a standard uninstall first. This tool is not

designed as a replacement for uninstall, but rather as a last resort for

cases where uninstall or repair did not succeed for unusual reasons.

2. This cleanup tool will delete shared files and registry keys used by

other versions of the .NET Framework. So if you use it, be prepared to repair

or reinstall any other versions of the .NET Framework that are on your

computer to get them to work correctly afterwards

 

Download the tool completely uninstall .net frameworks 1.0, 1.1, and 2.0.

 

(3) Reboot your computer after uninstalling/cleaning up the .net frameworks

you want to remove. NOte that when you restart your computer, any application

that is dependent on a .net framework version that you uninstalled will not

work. Be patient -- they'll work once you've reinstalled the appropriate .net

framework(s).

 

(4) Run Windows Update - custom. It should show all of the .net frameworks

not currently installed on your computer. Now you have probably not worried

about .net framework 3.0 since there was no security update for it. But there

is a regular update for it. You will probably find these .net frameworks

under "High Priority," but more likely under "Software, Optional." You can

download ALL of the .net frameworks and updates that are visible to you here

-- 1.1, 2.0, 3.0.

 

(5) After they've installed, reboot your computer.

 

(6) Now, the .net framework 1.1 that you just installed includes the latest

security update (Microsoft made this change today, July 12, 2007). You should

NOT try to install that update. So you should go back to Microsoft Update,

choose custom, and if it shows the .net framework 1.1 security pack update

tell Microsoft Update not to show it any more. Apparently Microsoft Update

thinks you didn't install it because it was built into the 1.1 that you just

installed.

 

(7) If you uninstalled .net framework 2.0, you should have been able to

reinstall it via Microsoft update. If it did not show up in Microsoft update,

you can track it down online via a search engine or at Microsoft.com and

download it and install it manually.

 

CAUTION. Frankly, you would be most prudent to clone your hard drive before

running these updates -- just to give yourself some protection. On my wife's

Windows XP Pro, SP2 computer, the .net framework 1.1 reinstall did not take

and I could not install it because I started getting Runtime errors from the

Microsoft Visual C++ RunTime Library. So I had to revert to a clone after

copying all the data (the D partition) to the clone's D partition.

I have this problem as well. Currently its occuring on a live

production server. Most of the suggested fixes is to "uninstall

asp.net" and "reinstall". These are simple not viable options for me.

In addition, I need asp.net 1.1 as well asp.net 2.0 operational on the

server at all times.

 

Why doesn't someone from Microsoft fire the person that created the

problem and get this fixed?

K928366 won't install - found a solution

 

I was having this problem on a Dell Inspiron. I killed off all non-essential processes, started the update, and then killed explorer.exe too.

 

I don't know what was causing the update to abort, but here are some things that were running:

 

kpf4ss.exe kpf4gui.exe (Sunbelt Personal Firewall)

Googletoolbarnotifier

nvsvc32.exe (NVidia)

EM_EXEC.exe (Logitech)

appservices.exe (Iomega)

acs.exe (Atheros)
