Unable to reinstall Net Framework 4.8 on Win 7
Several of my programs require Net Framework. I've encountered a variety of errors lately where none were before in this, my oldest PC which has not had any changes for a long time.
What I'd like to address here is a Netframework 4.8 that fails to install. I've attempted to do this multiple times and it looks like the install is repeatedly looking for something it can't find. The error message is in the attached screen shot. I checked in the BIOS for a bad timestamp which is described as one of possible errors.
For certificates and whatnot, I am lost. Everything was fine on this PC until I tried to get some program updates.

An additional thing I tried which was suggested was 'updating' windows from a link provided which is something I never do.
Running an m3u file for the update did not issue any errors. But re-running the NetFramework 4.8 routine failed again.
here is the link provided for ref:

It may be solved for them but it didn't do me any good.

I just thought to add that this is on my only SSD boot device. I have no idea if that is a problem.

there was another thing that didn't work involving turning off Windows Updater. It ran smoothly on another PC but the
one with SSD continues with the error. I ran it, restarted and tried to get Net Framework 4.8 again
