Hello,

For this particular time, I need to install updates to both .NET 8.0 and 9.0 manually through the Microsoft catalog store and when I do, I see the following and don't know if I need to install them all or just some of them. Which ones do I need?

Again, which ones?

Thanks!

That's all I need? No x86?

No, unless the application asks for it which would be rather a rarity and not really logical if using Win11 as you would expect everything to be 64-bit.

I do use some legacy programs, though. It's remarkable how Windows 11 doesn't block as many of them as you'd think. Or at least in my situation.

In that particular instance, I was told in the past to download both the x64 and the x86. Is that no longer the case?

The legacy programs use their own version of .NET and are not dependent of the more recent .NET version 8,9 just because they get installed.
The source code has to be asking for it (hard coded for a specific version)
Times have moved on and the need for 32bit is dwindling. Ever way, if the need arises, the program would warn you of such a requirement.
Keep in mind that unlike its predecessors Win 11 is strickly 64 bit.
