From: stock51 on 10 Jun 2010 14:59 Had to run this same scenario last October for KB953297. It gets irritating to have to run this time consuming fix again in less than 1 year. Would like to underline the word irritating.

From: j_65_uk on 10 Jun 2010 16:34 I run a network of over 200 machines and use WSUS to deploy our Windows/Microsoft patches. Since patch tuesday (2 days ago) kb979906 kb979909 were approved and sent out to all machines. We now have 68 (and increasing) machines all showing errors trying to install those two patches!! A full removal of .net is simply not an option so this is very frustrating - I'll watch this thread with interest... J:confused: -- j_65_uk Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com
From: sherlockomes on 10 Jun 2010 21:03 Hi j: I started this thread looking for an answer and although i recommend PA BEAR [MS MVP]'s solution of complete removal and intallation of all the ..NET Frameworks in correct prescibed order as being safest method, i took a risky shortcut (as i always do) and just uninstalled the .NET 1.1 Framework alone and then just reinstalled it again as i am a bit lazy.I was very pleased when i checked for updates the problem KB979906 was there and installed perfectly without a hitch.I have had no problems since then (although it is early days). I think the problem is that the .NET 1.1 Framework has become corrupt with all the fixes and patches so a simple re-installation does the trick. I hope you could maybe try this as an option for all your computers but don't blame me if it is unsuccessful. I am practical but no computer buff. It is worth a try though if your only other alternative is complete removal / re-installation of all .NETs. on all 200 machines. cheers S...omes "j_65_uk" wrote: > > I run a network of over 200 machines and use WSUS to deploy our > Windows/Microsoft patches.

I'm afraid that solution won't work for me. I've had my machine for less than two years from Dell and it's the second time it's had this corruption - the only way to fix it was to backup my stuff and reinstall everything... I suspect this problem is never really going to go away, simply because it's the way Dell fiddle with the OS so their hardware can work! Isn't there just a simple direct-download link for this file like everything else? |
