KB953297 won't install
Every day Windows Update tries to install Microsoft.Net Framework1.1 service
Pack 1 security update KB953297 & it fails. No error code is given, simply a message that it was not installed. According to my update history this has been happening since October. I've searched for advice on the MS site but it refers to a registry cleanup tool which I can't get to work. Searching on Google gets me to various bbs however I don't really understand the advice given as it seems to be aimed a people with far more pc knowledge than me, What do I need to do please? Tony |

Tony Try uninstalling .NET framework using control panel Add/Remove Programs. Then download and install .NET 3.5 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en see if this cures the problem.

Neil Thank you Neil I see from Add Remove Programs that I have .Net framework v.1 hotfix (KB953295), v.1.1, v.2, v.3.0 sp2 & v.3.5sp1. Do I need all those or will the latest version do? Tony |

Tony You only really need them if a program you are installing requests them. But to try to get to get over your problem I would remove anything relating to any version of .NET and then use the previous link to download 3.5 and then let windows update get you any updates for that version.

Neil I started uninstalling with version 1. then 1.1. Win Update then reinstalled both versions then the security update that caused the problem installed. I've also downloaded & installed v3.5 over the existing version 3.5 and now I'll stop leaving the other versions alone pro tem.. Thanks for your advice. Tony |
