Unable to install Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 SP1 on Windows XP, Windows Vista,

[AWS]

HELP Please. I have Vista Home Premium SP2. I am trying to install the "Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 SP1 on Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows Server 2008 x86 (KB2742597)".

 

I have tried every technical solution posted in the Knowledge Base, including the complete deletion and reinstallation of .NET, I've tried:

"Method 1: Fix MSI software update registration corruption issues".

"Method 2: Repair the .NET Framework" which includes the ".NET Framework Cleanup Tool" aka "dotnetfx_cleanup_tool.zip".

"System Update Readiness Tool for Windows Vista (KB947821) [November 2012]"

 

I've even tried every suggestion from the first 15 pages of this community post.

 

I am able to install every update that comes across except this one. Biggest question is, if I have all the latest .NET, do I really need this? If so, any other suggestions for me to try?
