Installing .net 3.5 Windows 10 1903 - SCCM

---

Hello,

I am having problems deploying .net 3.5 on Windows 10 1903 as it is needed for a program that is installed.

i have created a program in sccm and then created a task sequence within sccm to run the program using a powershell script. The task sequence is failing. I did have it working in previous versions of Windows 10 but i am hearing that it is a issue on v1903.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreicated.

Thanks,

Craig

@Craig-Lush ,

Can you share your script? What part is failing?

Both of these options worked on my Windows 10 2004 VM

DISM

PowerShell

Hi @Mike-Rodrick. I tired those two commands you have shown in your screenshots. I get an error message on both. I had tried running the script in the same directory as the source files with no luck and also tried running it in the Windows\system32 as shown in your example.

I will send you a copy of my script actually i found online but get errors with that as well.

The only way i can get it to run on the machine through a batch file running the dism command. You will see that it shows the source of the files going to the server. is there a way to do that in powershell? I tried copying and pasting the source in powershell but no luck.

If i run the script on a test vm that i have it works fine from the cmd line or running the batch however when i try it in sccm it fails. I think i know what the issue is. You need to run it as an administrator but i am trying to get around that. With powershell you can run as system and it gives you elevated permissions in Sccm. Maybe thats something @Adam-Gordon can suggest something for me.

Maybe you can figure out what is wrong with the PS script and add the sources line in there as well.

When i get the time i am going to take your PS course in-depth. Sorry i have limited knowledge in PS right now.

Thanks

@Mike-Rodrick I managed to get this script running on the test vm i have with using the Set-Execution Policy to unrestricted.

When I try to create it in SCCM it is not working. Not sure if i am doing it right. I created a package and then a task sequence pointing at the package with this script but no luck.

Any suggestions on what i could do? Maybe @Andy-Gordon can shed some light on it. I will keep plugging away at it.

@Mike-Rodrick . I have it now working with my script. I had to create a package in sccm and then a custom task sequence using my script that i sent you.

Deployed the task sequence and it is finally working.

@Craig-Lush ,

Glad I could help? lol.

Glad you got it working!

In case it comes up again, I believe the DISM command failed because of the space after /featurename: It should be /featurename:"NetFx3" No space between the : and "NetFx3".

@Mike-Rodrick Thanks for the tip. Really appreciate the feedback.
