Cannot install .NET 4.6, are tehre any wersions of NMM I can use for Fallout 4?

[CoqPwner]

I have spent the entire afternoon trying to install the god forsaken Windows KB 2919355 update (which is required to install .NET 4.6 in the first place) to no avail.

Nothing I find online works and I am sick and tired of wasting time and bandwidth on this dumb thing (because obviously windows update downloads the entire goddamn thing EVERY TIME I try).

Are there any versions of NMM I can use that do not require .NET 4.6 but still allow modding for Fallout 4?

The answer is, none.

 

Are you using Windows 7? Are you using Windows Service Pack 1 (SP1)?

 

Are you using Windows 10? It already comes included.

Is your copy of windows legitimate?

Windows 8.1, I have no error codes actually, it just says Windows couldnt install the update, undoing changes.
The update history shows NO UPDATE at all, and no errors either, even if I have installed several other updates today.
I have found several hotfixes online, all of which were actually ALREADY installed on my computer and none of them work.

 

Yes I have tried installing .NET 4.6, it displays an error saying I need the specific update before being able to install it.

 

I suppose upgrading to Windows 10 is an option, but as I work from my PC I'm a bit afraid of any repercussions on some of my softwares/VPN and stuff if I upgrade...


EDIT: Yes my copy is legitimate, it came with my PC when I bought it

 

EDIT2: My god have I massacred that title, I was watching TV while typing, apologies.

Try installing the .NET Framework here:

See if that works.

There will be an error code logged in Event Viewer. A hotfix released to patch an earlier hotfix has the same kb number but a newer revision ID. .. ie KB12345, KB12345 v2, KB12345 v3

End users don't see the revisions in Windows Update you need access to WSUS for that. So if you didn't try the newer one thinking it was no different I suggest downloading it anyway. Still shouldn't affect 4.6 install though.

 

If you don't have any luck with the 4.6 link above, copy the error code logged in Event Viewer and post it here.

 

 

PS you don't have to use NMM, I use FOMM. Imho it's better than NMM.
