Windows 8 comes with .Net Framework 4.5 pre-installed, which means it will work with applications based on .Net Framework 3.5. But not so. Tools that require a newer version sometimes can’t launch the installation just because they can’t find the specific framework on your computer.
Also, you cannot manually install the .Net Framework 3.5 because the installer will prompt you that a newer version is already installed on your system. So let’s see how you can resolve this deadlock and enable .Net Framework 3.5 on Windows 8 to install software dependencies.
Step 1: On Windows 8, launch the Start Screen and search for uninstall under the settings tab. Click on the result Uninstall a program to open the Programs and Features settings.
Step 2: In the Programs and Features window click on Turn Windows features on or off located on the left sidebar.
Step 3: On the Windows Features pop-up, expand .Net Framework 3.5 and check both included options.
Step 4: Click the OK button and confirm the change. Windows will connect to the internet and download the necessary files from the web. The download may take some time depending on your connection speed.
Once the download is complete, restart your computer to complete the update process. You can now install apps that require the .Net framework 3.5 to work on Windows 8.
