Antichamber

Antichamber

Antichamber on Windows 10?
So I've tried to fix this game in the past, but I still cant figure out why this isnt wanting to cooperate with me.

When I try to boot up antichamber, my computer tells me that I don't have Windows .Net 3.5 Framework and that in order to run this game, i need to download and install it. The thing is, I'm running this on Windows 10 and I already have the Windows .Net 4.5 Framework. I've researched this to the best of my ability, and still the only solution that I can find is to directly download the Windows .Net 3.5 Framework from the Microsoft technical support site, but after several attempts of downloading 3.5, it still wont work.

Am I just being stupid? I feel like there is some obvious solution to my problem that I'm not seeing.

Do you use an AMD graphics card?

Edit: Also, the redists are located in:
"..\Steam\steamapps\common\Antichamber\Binaries\Redist\"
Make sure all of those are installed.

No, I use an Nvidia GTX 960m and all of the binaries are installed. im sure you can see why this is frustrating for me considering that apparently nobody else on the internet has had this problem.

Is .net 3.5 actually installed or not? You can have multiple versions of .net installed at the same time - most people do: http://i.imgur.com/QTZjXix.png

You can find out if it is installed by following this:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh925568(v=vs.110).aspx

In the registry go to this location: "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\" and you should see folders for which versions are installed.

You should be able to install the setup from here:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=21

And there is a service pack for 3.5 here:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=25150

Ok now I'm running into a new problem, or rather an old problem I forgot to mention. Whenever I try to download the 3.5 service package, it downloads for about a minute before saying,

"The system cannot find the file specified. Error code: 0x80070002".

I've already looked into how to resolve that issue, but all the site is saying is that I should download the Windows Update Troubleshooter and that that should find whatever problem Im having. However, even after running the troubleshooter several times, it cant find anything wrong.

Not that I expect it to.

After I looked for any pre-existing .Net Frameworks, I seem to have 2.0 and 4.0 installed already, but now the problem is that I cant seem to download the service package from the support site because "The system cannot find the file specified", but I dont think the troubleshooter would be able to find anything wrong, because my computer is already has 2.0 and 4.0, both being fully supported Frameworks.

I've also looked into other ways of resolving this that are on the site, but i dont feel comfortable messing with the command prompt, and I'm not going to completely reinstall my operating system, especially when Windows 10 doesn't naturally come with the 3.5 Framework.
