    Thanks!
    I see this update (KB2852386) was installed today via the Patch Tuesday updates.
    So, what I'm not sure of is, do I need to run "Windows Cleanup" as a followup to this update being installed?
    This is in the instructions from the original link about this:

    Source:Update is available that enables you to delete outdated Windows updates by using a new option in the Disk Cleanup wizard in Windows 7 SP1

    I think it is up-to-you, as now there's a new tab in "other options" disk clean up.

    They're just pointing to the method..not telling you have to!

    I wouldn't do it right now, mine shows 494Mb to clean.

    I'll wait on this "cleanup" to see how it works out and if problems are reported...

    I had no problems with the cleanup.

    We now have a tutorial for it as well,

    One thing you need to be aware of is that this 'patch' almost certainly removes one layer of recovery capability that is currently available (while it also reduces the complexity level of the overall OS).

    My inclination is NOT to utilise the capability unless you have good backups, AND need the space (probably because you are using an SSD).

    Are you talking about this Noel?

    To enable you to roll back to previous updates, updates are stored in the WinSxS store even after they are superseded by later updates. Therefore, after you run the Disk Cleanup wizard, you may be unable to roll back to a superseded update. If you want to roll back to a superseded update that the Disk Cleanup wizard deletes, you can manually install the update.

    The Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.1 (Offline Installer) is available for Windows Vista SP2, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8, Windows Server 2008 SP2 Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Windows Server 2012.

    Intro:
    The Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.1 (Offline Installer) is now available for the .NET Framework 4 and the .NET Framework 4.5.
    What’s new in the .NET Framework 4.5.1?




    The .NET Framework 4.5.1 supports the writing of code in C#, Visual Basic, and F# programming languages, and includes these significant language and framework enhancements:
    • Better performance and reliability
    • ASP.NET application suspend and resume
    • On-demand compaction of the large object heap
    • 64-bit Edit and Continue
    • Activity tracing and sampling
    • SQL connection resiliency
    • Managed return values
    If your computer is not connected to the Internet, you can use the offline installer instead of the web installer to install this update. However, we recommend that you use the web installer to install this update if you are connected to the Internet.

    The .NET Framework 4.5.1 (Offline Installer) package is larger than the .NET Framework 4.5.1 (Web Installer) package. Additionally, the .NET Framework 4.5.1 (Offline Installer) package does not include the language packs for the .NET Framework.

    You can download and install the language packs from the following Microsoft website:
    The Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.1 Language Pack


    Review & Download:
    The Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.1 (Offline Installer)
