.NET Problems in windows 7

ole_rellik · Jul 16, 2013

I am trying to fix my son's computer but have hit a wall. Yesterday when he turned on his windows 7 computer he got an alert from the Curse program that an error occurred while trying to load a Microsoft .Net configuration file. It has a link to the Microsoft .Net3.5 download page. I have tried installing the file but every time it aborts and just says setup error. I tried the Microsoft .Net Repair tool to no avail. I even tried a repair off the Win7 Professional x64 install DVD. The main programs affected are Curse and World of Warcraft. Neither will function.
I would appreciate any assistance you can render.

That is probably because the current .NET is 4 not 3.5, so this has been superseded and probably the conflict. As for the programs not running, I would suggest running System Restore to before Curse was installed. Then look at the .Net download page again while looking at your Add/Removes, make sure you have all the .Nets for x64 in your system it says to install. I will tell you that it gets bad enough you may have to reload Windows from the beginning. I would also then seek the Curse support site and see if there is anything special for your setup to avoid the problems.

Usually just installing the appropriate version will work.

Download the following:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=21
then
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17718

Restart if it doesn't prompt you after install. The error should be resolved.
