Asked By Mark N Jelks 0 points N/A Posted on - 02/23/2014

Hello Ally,

I am a beginner in .NET, When I tried to install the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 I ended up with an error message. For your information it is a licensed version not the pirated one. And I have windows 8 operating system 64 bit and 250 GB Hard disk. I tried the options in the error message like rebooting the system, closing other applications and restarting the installer again. But no luck guys please help. Your help is great.

An error occurred while installing the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 (DN -2145091572). Reboot your computer, exit all other applications, and restart this installer to try again.

Hello,

.NET Framework is Microsoft’s one of the greatest product that has enabled programmers create their programs compatible with all Windows versions.

Windows 8 comes with .NET Framework 4.5 installed by default so this might be a problem. The best solution will be installing the latest .NET Framework 4.5.1. Download .NET Framework 4.5.1.

If this didn’t work, try this .NET Framework Removal Tool. This will remove all .NET Framework installations and then, install the software again. It looks like the software comes with a default .NET Framework installer so this should work fine.
