Solve : Offline install of .NET 3.5 on Windows 8.1?

Answer» <html><body><p>Heya All!<br/><br/>So I'm still learning quite a bit about Windows 8/8.1... I have a few applications that need .NET 2.0/3.0/3.5 to run, and of course - there is not installer for Win 8!! :O<br/><br/>So I Google'd a bit and found an article on MSDN covering it. It basically tries to do it as a download by default, however I cannot connect this PC to the internet. So I found how to manually do it.<br/><br/>Says insert the install CD/ISO and run this from command prompt:<br/><br/>Code: <a>[Select]</a>DISM /Online /Enable-Feature /FeatureName:NetFx3 /All /LimitAccess /Source:D:\sources\sxs<br/>I've navigated through the disk and ensured that there are 222 "x86_netfx..." files... <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/nonetheless-7377332" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about NONETHELESS">NONETHELESS</a> I get this:<br/><br/>Quote</p><blockquote>Error: 0x800f081f<br/><br/>Ethe source file could not be found.</blockquote><br/>Personally I can't make any sense of the log file that it generates... the only thing I noticed is that there are files that say "x86_netfx4" and "x86_netfx35 [cdf|linq]" but nothing that mentions netfx2 or netfx3... :/ maybe it's bugging because there is no netfx3 file as specified by the DISM /FeatureName switch...<br/><br/>Anyway, any help figuring this out is greatly appreciated! I'm gonna continue fiddling around to see if I can figure it out... If I get a solution I'll post it here, cause I haven't been able to find anything anywhere else! LOL!<br/><br/>Thanks!<br/><br/>-kyle_engineerkyle_engineer,<br/> You do have Internet, you posted here. So why not just hook that computer into your local network and do the download? There are a number of ways you can tie it to your other PC and <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/share-25805" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about SHARE">SHARE</a> the Internet.<br/>Which of the items below do you have?<br/>• Cat 5 cable<br/>•Ethernet card.<br/>•Simple hub.<br/>° Router with wireless.<br/>° USB wireless<br/>°Direct connect cable.<br/>Thee is a reason to do direct download. The site can sense what system you have and provide the correct version of the MS .NET package.<br/><em>Try direct download.</em><br/>When I say I can't connect it, it is because of company policy reasons. I would have trouble physically connecting it, but for various reasons - I won't be connecting it.<br/><br/>Also, it doesn't need to "provide the correct version" because there is not "correct version" for Win 8.1. And since .NET isn't at all hardware reliant, it would make no difference what I'm running on...<br/><br/>My main confusion is why it is not "enabling" as it's supposed to.<br/><a href="https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh506443%28v=vs.110%29.aspx">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh506443%28v=vs.110%29.aspx</a><br/>See the "Troubleshooting" section.OK, you are right. MS says you can do it with a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/full-1001178" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about FULL">FULL</a> download.,<br/><a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5007"><br/>Microsoft .NET Framework Client Profile <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/offline-11408" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about OFFLINE">OFFLINE</a> Installer</a><br/><br/>My guess is you already read that.<br/>However, that link does specify a 3.5 version issue.<br/><br/>Quote<blockquote>.NET Framework development tools like Visual Studio, will not function on .NET Framework 3.5 Client Profile. Developers will need to install full .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1. </blockquote><br/><br/>Yeah, I knew about that.<br/><br/>Thanks for the help anyway though. I was able to work around the issue fortunately. So this topic is <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/officially-2202427" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about OFFICIALLY">OFFICIALLY</a> solved! yay<br/><br/>- kyle_engineer<br/>Try this Offline installer for .NETFX 3.5.
