WINDOWS8 : DotNET Farmework 3.5 Problem

It's one of the most common problem in Windows8. Even i also face the .NET Framework 3.5 problem when I was going to Install Encarta Which doesn;t support .NET Framework 4. I had to install the .NET Framework 3.5 on online but here i will show you how to install the DotNet Framework 3.5 in the Off line mode.

This solution requires the user to have a Windows 8 DVD available.

1. Insert the Windows 8 Installation Disk and note the drive. Check for the folders /source/sxs.
2. Run a Command Prompt as Administrator.
   
   a) From the Windows Start Page, right-click any open space and click 'All apps'.
   b) Find Command Prompt, right-click the application, and choose 'Run as administrator'.
   c) If the User Account Control prompt appears, choose Yes.
3. Use the Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool to install .NET 3.5
   
   Type the following command in the Command Prompt window and hit Enter:
   

   Dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /All /Source:"Path to installation media":\sources\sxs /LimitAccess

   
   
   For example, if the 'Path to installation media' is drive D: the code would look like the following:
   

   Dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:NetFx3 /All /Source:D:\sources\sxs /LimitAccess
