How does one force uninstall - 2024-10 Cumulative Update for .NET Framework 3.5 and 4.8.1 for Windows 11, version 23H2 for x64 (KB5044033)?
When I did a in-place repair install of Beta Insiders 23H2 22635.4367, it did not install .NET Framework 3.5 but it did install KB5044033 already so in order to get .NET Framework 3.5 to install, I had to do the following because it would not install due to a missing components error:
In this section show below:
I clicked on Uninstall on KB5044033 and it will always show uninstalled but when I go back to that section 1 second later, it will always show the KB5044033 still installed so even if I repeat the uninstall, it will still show it as installed. Tried to uninstall in Safe mode with the same results. My concern is since I installed .NET Framework 3.5 after KB5044033 was already installed, I wanted to make sure the .NET Framework 3.5 is the security patched version so basically I want to force uninstall KB5044033 and let Windows Update install it again.
