The file RemoveEnglishLanguageSupport.cmd is not longer included, should I use RemoveCustomLanguageSupport.cmd eng or RemoveCustomLanguageSupport.cmd enu?
The english language is necesary for some updates?

Thanks

In the master development version, you cannot remove the English language support anymore, because the English installers are the only "full" installers for:

  • all .NET Frameworks
  • Internet Explorer 11 on Windows Server 2012

Other languages are supported with language packs.

For the .NET Frameworks, the filenames may looks similar, but if you compare the file sizes, the English installers clearly stand out:

Code: Select all
  6M  ndp48-x86-x64-allos-deu.exe
112M  ndp48-x86-x64-allos-enu.exe
  6M  ndp48-x86-x64-allos-esn.exe
  6M  ndp48-x86-x64-allos-fra.exe

All clear of that :D Thank you!
In this example the .NET Frameworks files that are not english, are language packs only :o

Another question I have is: :mrgreen: the change of this:

"Support for .NET Framework 3.5 (dotnetfx35) was removed."

I have been doing this before:
...\cmd\IntegrateSourcesSxsFolder.cmd "D:\Windows 10\Winx64\sources\sxs" w100-x64 esn
(file: microsoft-windows-netfx3-ondemand-package~31bf3856ad364e35~x86~~.cab)
...\cmd\IntegrateSourcesSxsFolder.cmd "D:\Windows 10\Win\sources\sxs" w100 esn
(file: microsoft-windows-netfx3-ondemand-package~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~.cab)

Is this no longer required/supported?
I need to enable .NET Framework 3.5 in Windows 10 by another way?

Thanks :)

Means that support for dotnetfx35.exe was removed. This setup was only required up to and including Windows Vista. All later versions of Windows already include .NET Framework 3.5 or higher. .NET Framework on Windows 10 is updated via the regular Windows updates. You can still use the same method to enabe it.

Wir (also die Mods hier im Forum) versuchen, das Tool so gut es geht am Laufen zu halten.

Was die Aktualisierung der static-Links angeht, bin ich nicht so schnell wie WSUSUpdateAdmin, aber sie kommen dann doch nach jedem Patchday.

Viele Grüße

I tried to enable .NET Framework 3.5 feature through Programs and Features applet and Windows offered me to connect to Windows Update for completing the operation. Am I doing something wrong? Win81.

That's exactly the route MS wants users to take. The older .NET Framework can either be installed via the internet or offline with the Windows setup DVD.

To install it from the Windows setup DVD, use the following command from an administrative command prompt:
Code: Select all
dism.exe /Online /Enable-Feature /All /FeatureName:NetFX3 /LimitAccess /Source:"D:\rive\sources\sxs"
Replace D:\rive\sources\sxs with the path of your setup DVD's \sources\sxs directory. Note that all official Windows setup DVDs since Windows 8 contain this directory.

WSUS Offline also provides such an option to enable/install .NET Framework 3.x on newer Windows versions, but I'm not sure how to use it. Judging from the source code of DoUpdate.cmd the content of sources\sxs directory needs to be copied to wsusoffline\client\w63-x64\<lang>\sxs (replace <lang> with the language of your Windows).
