How can I install the .NET 4.0 Framework on Windows 8 Pro / Visual Studio 2012 Professional?
I get this:
and if I follow the link of Install other frameworks...
I get into Microsoft page where I find this information:
I have then installed .NET Framework 4.0.1 Targeting Pack and .NET Framework 4.0.2 Targeting Pack as I can't install 4.0.3, restarted the machine over an over, but Visual Studio continues not to show the framework on the dropdown menu.
What am I doing wrong?
Here is what regedit
says what I have installed on my machine:
1I am having the same issue on a Windows 8 machine, but no issues with a Windows 7 machine. Leaning towards it being Windows 8 – Tom Stickel – 2012-10-29T04:15:33.460
1@TomStickel same here... I have no problems with Windows 7, only after upgrade, let me know if you get a solution, I'm starting to think that a uninstall/install or reinstall would fix... will try this later today. – balexandre – 2012-10-29T10:11:44.740
A friend of mine is having the same problem. Sinking too much time into it. Have to "call it" .... Formatting to Windows 7 :/ – Tom Stickel – 2012-10-29T18:05:10.580
