- On the Start screen, type and then choose Control Panel. (To access the Start screen, press the Windows logo key
on your keyboard.)
- Choose Programs, and then choose Turn Windows features on or off.
- Select the .NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0) check box.
You do not need to select the child items for Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) HTTP activation unless you are a developer who requires WCF script and handler mapping functionality.
Turning Windows features on or off in Control Panel
While installing I came across following error
- 0x800f0906: “Windows couldn't connect to the Internet to download necessary files. Make sure that you're connected to the Internet, and click Retry to try again.”
Solution: Why not install it offline?? Damn it is simple as cracking peanuts.... ;-)
1. You'll need a copy of Windows 8 setup files to your hard disk.
If you have Windows 8 setup disc and don't want to copy its content, its ok. Just insert the disc in your CD/DVD drive so that Windows can access its content.
2. Now open Command Prompt as Administrator and then provide following command:
Dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /All /Source:C:Win8.1\DiscData\sources\sxs /LimitAccess
Here "C:Win8.1\DiscData\sources\sxs" represents the path on c drive in my system which contains Windows 8 setup. Replace it with the correct drive letter according to your system.
If you extracted Windows 8 setup files in a disc drive, replace F:\sources\sxs with the correct path.
3. As soon as you execute the above mentioned command, Windows will start installing .NET Framework 3.5 in your system and it'll not require Internet connection.
It'll take a few minutes and you'll get a message that the operation completed successfully.
4. That's it. Now you have installed .NET Framework 3.5 in Windows 8 without using Internet connection.
How'z that .... Hope that helps....
