Windows Features Searching For Required Files
Denna Repaci
Now the system is stuck in Searching for required files for nearly half an hour! I already killed and restarted the process twice, the outcome was every time the same. It is confusing because on another, "real" Windows 10 (second PC) this worked like a charm.
So, I have been in the process of Windows 10 hardening and when I go to turn off unnecessary Windows 10 features such as Internet Explorer 11, Legacy components, Windows Media player, Microsoft print to PDF, etc. it keeps freezing up on searching for required files and if I let it go, it fails to make the changes every time.
In this post, we will learn about the different steps to install .Net Framework 3.5 in windows 10. It is required in some functional requirement to run an app also for images that will support more than one language, you must add .NET Framework 3.5 binaries before adding any language packs. Dot NET Framework 3.5 is not included by default in Windows 10.
The time required for the initial creation of this index depends on the amount and type of data to be indexed, and can take up to several hours, but this is a one-time event.[1] Once a file's contents have been added to this index, Windows Search is able to use the index to search results more rapidly than it would take to search through all the files on the computer. Searches are performed not only on file names, but also on the contents of the file (provided a proper handler for the file type is installed such as a PDF reader) as well as the keywords, comments and all other forms of metadata that Windows Search recognizes. For instance, searching the computer for "The Beatles" returns a list of music files on the computer which have "The Beatles" in their song titles, artists or album names, as well as any e-mails and documents that include the phrase "The Beatles" in their titles or contents.
Windows Search features incremental search (also known as "search as you type"). It begins searching as soon as characters are entered in the search box, and keeps on refining and filtering the search results as more characters are typed in. This results in finding the required files even before the full search text is entered.
The Windows Search service provides the Notifications API component to allow applications to "push" changed items that need indexing to the Windows Search indexer.[7] Applications use the component to supply the URIs of the items that need to be indexed, and the URIs are written to the Gather Queue, where they are read off by the indexer. Microsoft Outlook and Microsoft OneNote use this ability to index the items managed by them and use Windows Search queries to provide the in-application searching features. The internal USN Journal Notifier component of Windows Search also uses the Notifications API, monitoring the Change Journal in an NTFS volume to keep track of files that have changed on the volume.[18] If the file is in a location indexed by Windows Search and does not have the FANCI (File Attribute Not Content Indexed) attribute set,[7] the Windows Search service is notified of its path via the Notification API.
The search functionality is exposed using the search bars in the Start menu and the upper right hand corner of Windows Explorer windows, as well as Open/Save dialog boxes. When searching from the Start menu, the results are shown in the Start menu itself, overlapping the recently used programs. From the Start menu, it is also possible to launch an application by searching for its executable image name or display name. Searching from the search bars in Explorer windows replaces the content of the current folder with the search results. The Explorer windows can also render thumbnails in the search results if a Thumbnail Handler is registered for a particular file type. It can also render enhanced previews of items in a Preview Pane without launching the default application, if the application has registered a Preview Handler. This can provide functionality such as file type-specific navigation (such a browsing a presentation using next/previous controls, or seeking inside a media file).[29] Preview handlers can also allow certain kind of selections (such as highlighting a text snippet) to be performed from the preview pane itself. In the Control Panel, the search bar in the window can also search for Control Panel options. However, unlike WDS, Windows Search does not support creating aliases.
The Windows Features window indicates Windows is searching for required files and displays a progress bar. Once found, the window indicates Windows is applying the changes. When completed, the window indicates the requested changes are completed.
In Windows Vista and later, Windows Search is integrated into all Windows Explorer windows for instant access to search. This enables users to quickly search for files and items by file name, properties, and full-text contents. Results can also be filtered further to refine the search. Here are some more features of Windows Search:
Step 4: Then, your Windows will start searching for required files. After the changes are applied, you will receive the following window. Just click Restart now button.

Some users may encounter the issue of not being able to enable the .NET 3.5 feature in Windows 8 (a requirement when installing ArcGIS for Desktop 10.1). The following error is displayed:
"Windows couldn't complete the requested changes. Windows couldn't connect to the internet to download necessary files. Make sure that you're connected to the internet, and click 'Retry' to try again. Error code: 0x800F0906"
Attempt to enable .NET 3.5 in Windows 8
1. Navigate to the Add Windows Features window: From the Windows Start Page, right-click on any open space and click on 'All apps'. Go to the Control Panel and choose 'Programs and Features' Choose 'Turn Windows features on or off' in the Programs and Features window.
2. Turn on the .NET Framework 3.5 feature: The '.NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0)' option is not be selected. Click the box next to '.NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0)' and click OK.
3. Attempt to add the feature from Windows Update: Windows Features searches for required files. When given the option, choose 'Download files from Windows Update', Windows Features states that it is downloading required files
4. Windows displays the error:
"Windows couldn't complete the requested changes. Windows couldn't connect to the internet to download necessary files. Make sure that you're connected to the internet, and click 'Retry'. Error code: 0x800F0906"
After clicking OK, the following dialog is displayed:

The config and version files are typically installed as part of thepackage, so they tend to be more reliable than Find modules. They usuallycontain direct knowledge of the package contents, so no searching orheuristics are needed within the config or version files themselves.
All configuration files which have been considered by CMake whilesearching for the package with an appropriate version are stored in the_CONSIDERED_CONFIGS variable, and the associated versionsin the _CONSIDERED_VERSIONS variable.

Microsoft plans to remove SMB1 binaries from future versions of Windows. Windows client and server editions won't include the required drivers or DLL files anymore, and connections that require SMB1 will fail as a consequence.
Dependency Walker is a free utility that scans any 32-bit or 64-bit Windows module (exe, dll, ocx, sys, etc.) and builds a hierarchical tree diagram of all dependent modules. For each module found, it lists all the functions that are exported by that module, and which of those functions are actually being called by other modules. Another view displays the minimum set of required files, along with detailed information about each file including a full path to the file, base address, version numbers, machine type, debug information, and more.
Dependency Walker is also very useful for troubleshooting system errors related to loading and executing modules. Dependency Walker detects many common application problems such as missing modules, invalid modules, import/export mismatches, circular dependency errors, mismatched machine types of modules, and module initialization failures.
Dependency Walker runs on Windows 95, 98, Me, NT, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, 7, and 8. It can process any 32-bit or 64-bit Windows module, including ones designed for Windows CE. It can be run as graphical application or as a console application. Dependency Walker handles all types of module dependencies, including implicit, explicit (dynamic / runtime), forwarded, delay-loaded, and injected. A detailed help is included.
In certain situations, you may have alternative options for including a file, such as facade files. When the usage of one file can be considered as an alternative to the usage of another file, you can specify this relationship in EditorConfig. By doing so, you can prevent #include cleanup from generating suggestions for alternate matches.Examples of single and multiple alternate files (windows.h is an alternate for minwindef.h and windows.h is an alternate for winerror.h):
