Game says I need to install .net framework. But I already have that on my computer?

[Thomas]

My game told me I needed to install .netframework or I couldn't play. It wouldn't download from the launcher so I went to the website to download it and it told me it was already downloaded and up to date.

What version is installed?. How do you know it's installed?.

I went to the site to download the newest (like 4.8 or something) and it told me it couldn't install because version 4.8 or newer was already on my computer. Please note that I am terrible with tech and have very little clue what I'm doing.

Maybe you can try enabling 3.5 and see if that helps. Try and follow the directions on this page https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/install/dotnet-35-windows-10. It's not too hard.

ahhh ok, I tried that, I had 4.8 enabled and when I say enable 3.5 as well it goes to a screen that says, searching for required files. This same screen came up from the game launcher. I left it for like 55 minutes earlier and when I came back it was still searching for selected files.

Depends what the game is asking for... 2.xx, 3.xx, 4.xx

Directions?

Just go into control panel, Programs and features, turn windows features on/off and add all the NET and ASP Frameworks

You can't use NET installers for Win10. Cause it has a secure option built in for adding/removing them.

If you still have issues. Remove all NET/ASP Frameworks from Turn Windows Features on/off. When all of those are unticked, click ok. Reboot. Then add them all back again.

I've not downloaded anything other than games since I've had the computer

Well your OS should get a clean install via a clean Win10 64bit 1909 ISO. It's all screwed up.

You should install all your drivers first. They'll be found on your motherboard's website, for GPU drivers use DDU in safe mode to uninstall old drivers, disable windows ability to handle drivers, then manually clean install them from Nvidia/AMD.
