i believe your correct perhaps it's a plug in for a browser that the OP requires? Was there a prompt somewhere recommending to install it?I do believe dot net framework is included in Windows 7. I think thats what that error message is telling you. Do what it says and have a look in control panel for anything related to Dot Net Framework. I'm not at a Windows 7 PC at the moment so I can't verify it.
Hey all , I have the same problem with the .NET Framework.
If it is as you say and framework is already installed on windows 7 , why when I install the MMO game I am playing and i run the client it says : You need to have a .NET Framework version installed to ur pc ??
I had the same problem, but windows 7 has .net 3.5.1 already installed, i kept trying to install some programs and it wouldn't let me saying that .net 3.0 or higher needed to be installed.
This is how i fixed it;
Go to: start/control panel/programs and features
On the top left you should see "Turn windows features on or off" click on that
Find "Microsoft .NET framework 3.5.1" when the window opens
Click the + sign next to it to expand it so you can now see:
"Windows Communication Foundation HTTP Activation"
"Windows Communication Foundation HTTP non-Activation"
Make sure there is a tick in both boxes and select OK.
Hope that helps.
\"Windows Communication Foundation HTTP Activation\"
\"Windows Communication Foundation HTTP non-Activation\"
These are by default unchecked for me. When I check them, I get the following message:
\"An error has occurred. Not all of the features were successfully changed.\" When I click ok, I says it needs to restart to apply the changes. After restarting and going back to the same places, the above two boxes are still unchecked.
Any information as to why this might be and what can be done to ratify the situation would be most welcome. I need to open a program which requires Net Framework.
Thank you.
'bory',
Kudos, m8 that reverting is not part of our discussion
Hit the Windows Orb
In Search start typing Turn Windows features on or off
Open it from the Start Pane
Scroll down to
"Microsoft .NET framework 3.5.1"
By default, its checkbox is filled in blue.
Click the + sign next to it to expand it so you can now see:
"Windows Communication Foundation HTTP Activation"
"Windows Communication Foundation HTTP non-Activation"
Put checks in both boxes
Hit OK.
Have you already done the above, including a reboot?
> View Update History. Any .NET items listed?
Check for Available Windows Updates, including Optionals. Any .NET items listed?
Will go further after your reply...
Thanks,
