Problem with net framework reinstall
Posted: 21.01.2017, 18:51
Hello, first off, thank you for creating and sharing WOU with us all for free. WOU made performing a clean install of Windows 10 so much easier!
Now I'm not sure if my problem is related to WOU directly, but I may as well ask.
When I used WOU originally I included the .net framework installer, and everything was fine until I tried playing a certain game. This game (Uthgard, a free server of Dark Age of Camelot) hasn't been able to load properly and I've gone through everything except reinstalling .net framework. When I went to look for .net framework in programs & features to uninstall it I couldn't find it anywhere. I'm guessing this is because I used WOU to install it and not directly from microsoft or windows update.
I first tried running the .net framework 4.6 file that I need to run this game to see if there was a uninstall or repair option, but it just said my version was up to date already. Next I looked around online and found a.net framework verification tool, .net framework repair tool, and finally a .net framework cleanup tool. First I ran the repair tool and it said it was unable to fix it. Next I ran the cleanup tool, restarted, and tried to install version 4.6 again but it said my version was already up to date. Next I ran the verification tool and sure enough .net framework is still installed, the cleanup tool didn't seem to wipe it out.
So I'm not sure what to do next. I feel like it should be easier to uninstall .net framework, all the tutorials show it listed in programs & features. Did WOU install it in a different way? Any ideas how I can resolve this? Thanks in advance!
