Hello,
I've been trying and failing to install any version of the .NET Framework 4.x on Windows 7 Pro SP1 (with all updates installed). I really need just 4.5.2, but it appears none of the version 4 installers work.
If I try to install 4.5.2 or 4.6.1 or the Windows 4 client profile via Windows Update, it fails with error code 641. The System event log shows error 0x80070643 for the failed install. I am able to successfully install other Windows Updates.
If I try the web installer for 4 or the stand-alone installers for 4.5.x or 4.6.x, they all fail saying the generic message of the Windows Installer Service could not be accessed. I can install other applications that use the Windows Installer without issue. The log for the installer doesn't show anything useful:

I can remove and re-add .NET 3.5 without issue.
Here's what I've tried:
1) Repairing the Windows Installer
2) Repairing Windows Update
3) Using the stand alone installer
4) Removing the antivirus
5) The .NET Framework Repair tool (which I allowed to run for over 24 hours during the second stage when it tries to collect the logs, then I cancelled it)
6) The .NET Cleanup Tool
The system itself checks out fine in all hardware tests, including surface and file issues with the hard drive.
I think for debugging purposes, it's best to focus on the stand alone installer so we can exclude Windows Update issues. I'm not really sure how to proceed so any help is appreciated!
Thanks,
Joe
