Thanks for the info. I can't see any reason there for it to be installed on my two (gaming and work-based) Windows 7 SP1 machines. I'd be interested, however, to see if anyone sees any benefits from doing so.

Can't install because the previous one, "April, 2017 Security and Quality Rollup for .NET Framework 3.5.1, 4.5.2, 4.6, 4.6.1, 4.6.2" refused to install. "Error 66A."
I hate the security on Win 7. I think it's more trouble than it's worth. ::Sigh:: So how do I get the previous one installed?

So they didn't bundle the additional directx component with the framework 4.7 by default? Damn they're getting sloppy.

I tried installing the d3complier for Win 7, but mine is 64-bit. Now there are 3 things i can't install, sorry, 4. The May Net F is sitting in my Control Panel. Do I need all the framework stuff?

I think you already know my views on Windows 10. If it weren't for Win 10 I wouldn't have Linux already installed on my new build.
