.NET Framework 4.6, 4.6.1, 4.6.2, and 4.7

 

Editorial: 2017 was a rough year for Microsoft with respect to the .NET Framework. There were seemingly endless issues with Previews of Quality Rollups, and even a few with actual Security and Quality Rollups. With the release of the November 2017 Security and Quality Rollup, things have finally stabilized for the first time since December 2016. You can benefit from all of Microsoft's 2017-released work on the .NET Framework 4.6, 4.6.1, 4.6.2, and 4.7 by installing three updates (as applicable to your version of Windows).

 

NOTE: If you are using .NET Framework 4.6, please install all the updates/hotfixes from the two sections above this one before installing the updates in this section. If you are using .NET Framework 4.6.1, please install all the updates/hotfixes from the section immediately above this one before installing the updates in this section.

WARNING: In the case of Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, Windows 8.1, and Windows Server 2012 R2, be absolutely sure (as in, check to make sure) that you have already installed either .NET Framework 4.6, 4.6.1, 4.6.2, or 4.7 before applying any of these hotfix rollups. If you happen to have .NET Framework 4.5, .NET Framework 4.5.1, or .NET Framework 4.5.2 installed, these hotfix rollups will still install, and will cause a version mismatch between .NET Framework components that will (at best) cause general system instability, or (at worst) may even result in you not being able to use your system at all.

 

Further, should you find yourself in this scenario, simply uninstalling the hotfix rollup(s) is insufficient to regain a working system. In addition to doing so, you will have to open an administrative Command Prompt, and type:

 

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

 

Alternatively, you can install a higher version of .NET Framework than you currently have (and, subsequently, its hotfix rollups) to fix this problem.

 

Following are some articles from the Microsoft Knowledge Base which provide some information on this problem:

 

KB3118750 - Known issue for security updates 3098779 and 3097997 for the .NET Framework 4.5.1 and 4.5.2 after you install the .NET Framework 4.6 on Windows 8.1, Windows RT 8.1, and Windows Server 2012 R2

 

KB3136092 - Clarification of the applicability of updates for the .NET Framework 4.6 and 4.6.1
