Go to the windows update page. Unchecked the updates and expand the tree
(click on + sign). Choose to hide these updates. YOU DON'T NEED THAT
CRAP ANYWAY.
Live happily ever after.

Here is EXACTLY what you do to solve this problem for Windows XP 32
bit. If you happen to have a rarer 64 bit version, server OS, or
SOMETHING else follow the same general instructions but get the
version of the files appropriate for your system but first, Microsoft
has pissed me off beyond belief. I looked in my log and this same
thing happened 6/2006...thanks MSFT for torturing us again this year.
I thought it was a familiar feeling...nice branding...this is a huge
humiliation for their .NET team in my opinion or perhaps we should
start calling them the .NOT team...anyway....

Steps:
1) Go to the control panel and select the add/remove software tool
then TRY and remove everything with .NET in the name. If you can
remove everything go to step 3. If you cannot remove everything go to
step 2.

2) Go and download the windows installer clean up tool at:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301

run the windows installer clean up tool and BE CAREFUL to only select
the .NET items from the list and remove them. Note: this will likely
leave the names as "dead links" in the Add/Remove Software list
(ahhh ...Microsoft thoroughness at its best) but not to worry they
will do no harm and will get fixed when we finish. It's possible to
clean them up but let's stay out of the registry :-)

3) Go and get the file "dotnetfx.exe" this is ".NET 1.1" from:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=262D25E3-F589-4842-8157-034D1E7CF3A3&displaylang=en

install it.

4) Go and get the file "NDP1.1sp1-KB867460-X86.exe" this is the ".NET
1.1 service pack 1" from: my personal website (JUST KIDDING,
RELAX...get everything of course from a microsoft.com domain)

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=A8F5654F-088E-40B2-BBDB-A83353618B38&displaylang=en

install it.

5) Install the SECURITY patch, the dreaded KB928366, we have all grown
to hate. You can install it from the Windows Update program (be sure
to ONLY select the KB928366 patch and NOTHING else, we dont want to
put back 2.0 or 3.0 yet). It's OK go ahead and click ...it will be
alright...you can do it...it's just one more time... :-)

6) Re-run the Windows Update and you can add back in .NET 2.0 and 3.0

7) Post to thank me...

Now WHY hasn't Microsoft posted instructions yet? .... What is UP?!

Good night!

George

[LennyV]

Thanks George. I have gone through all the process up to and including
installing .NET 1.1 but I'm still wondering...

Do most people need .NET on their computers? It seems to be for developers,
although MS warns that some programs may not work but which programs rely on
.NET?

thanks ray.

[Jim]

Thanks very much for the information. With this dial-up connection it looks I
won't get bored for the next couple days or so.

[Jim]

Thanks !!! Looks like I will have plenty to do for a couple days or more with
this dial-up connection. Do you know if I should have .NET 3.0 ? it doesn't
show on the Add/Remove page. But then again .NET Framework 1.1 Service pack 1
doesn't show either and when I try to download and install it give me the
message that it is installed. Couldn't be a MS screw up !!!

[bakanz]

I successfully applied George's alternative Posted As 'RE: KB928365 and
KB928366 PROBLEM SOLVED READ!!!!' Thus reinstalled dotnetfx (after msi
cleanup utility) 1.1 , then update net 1.12 with kb928366. Finally
reinstalled dotNet2.0 after which the update kb928365 was applied via ms
Update normally.
Thanks very much George:)

Disregard this I had a duh moment and finally noticed that I had to
redownload the step 2 app,evidently is did not install the first time...ahh
the joys of "senior moments'

[hstokars...@discussions.microsoft.com]

Glad this helped others, but it did nothing forme. I'm left with the same
DAMNED uninstalled update.

[hstokars...@discussions.microsoft.com]

Only this one worked for me....withall of the damned reboots and running no
other programs than this calls for (found elsewhere in these threads):

1. Download and install this:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/E/9/D/E9D80355-7AB4-45B8-80E8-983A48D5E1BD/msicuu2.exe
2. Run it (Windows Installer Clean Up) from the start menu
and look for/remove .NET Framework.
3. Reboot.
4. Download/install this:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/a/a/c/aac39226-8825-44ce-90e3-bf8203e74006/dotnetfx.exe
5. Reboot.
6. Download/install this:

http://download.microsoft.com/download/8/b/4/8b4addd8-e957-4dea-bdb8-c4e00af5b94b/NDP1.1sp1-KB867460-X86.exe
7. Reboot.
8. Download/install this:
http://www.download.windowsupdate.com/msdownload/update/v3-19990518/cabpool/ndp1.1sp1-kb928366-x86_20112ef50011e0de2c0e3378139245d81a178b15.exe
9. Reboot.

Visit http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ and scan
for/install critical updates.

[Don Burnette]

I just tried the below, NDP1 will not install for me, says it cannot verify
the patch or something like that.

Glad to see this works for some, but certainly is not getting it for me. I
went ahead and tried visiting windows update again, still no go.

MS, has screwed up royally, with this update. I just hope I am not screwing
something on my system, but doing all of this...

Hi George, I'm trying to live happily ever after BUT ... have hit a snag. I
wonder if you can help?

I've deleted all the .NET installations, installed dotnetfx.exe, and then
I've tried to install the NDP.1 exe file. I then get the following message:

"The upgrade patch cannot be installed by Windows Installer Service because
the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a
different version of the program. Verify that the program to be updated
exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch."

I'm best at following instructions rather than working things out for
myself, so can you suggest what's to be done here?

[PA Bear]

1. Uninstall the .NET Framework version(s) in question;

2. Download and run this Uninstall Clean-up tool:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=7A4EFC33-0343-4EE4-B0C4-97BD16967A09

3. Search the MS Download Center
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/Search.aspx) for the .NET Framework
version(s) you need to reinstall, then download & install them;

4. Download/install the update(s) via Windows Update or Automatic Updates.

As of this writing I still don't have the KB928366 update issue resolved. In
the past 3 weeks I have had 3 different support techs and none have been able
to fix this problem. Most of the solutions they gave me were the same ones
George had posted. The latest one completely cleaned all NET Framework files
but now I am unable to open the Windows OneCare Live. Someone questioned even
installing NET Framework, I don't know what other programs use it other than
Windows OneCare Live. One time I had problems with it and had to remove all
NET Framework programs and reinstall them. I can't help but think that the
money spent paying the 3 support techs would have been better spent if
Microsoft had designed another update to update the update. My confidence
level in Microsoft drops with each passing day !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks George,
You should be paid by Microsoft.
I wish I had found this post sooner.

At work I have discovered installing a Windows Installed update
(KB893803), I could install KB928365 without uninstalling any .NET
files. It has worked on several machines.

Hi George!

Your solution certainly made my day!

For more than a month I've been very annoyed by those icons popping up
and telling me that there is an update KB928366 which I need to have.
You bet I've tried to update but the icon still comes back. Looking in
the log of updates there is a number of green checkmarks from medio
July, but apperently something didn't get right. After applying your
solution everythings seems OK.

Again, thanks!
