I am not a developer but a regular consumer. If this is not the correct place to post my question, please let me know where I can find the answer I need.<o:p></o:p>
I thought this was a Windows Update issue but it might actually be a .NET Framework issue instead.<o:p></o:p>
Windows (Vista) updates not configured correctly. Reverting changes.
Problem started in January 2013. I have tried all of the fixes that I could find from Microsoft websites and others.
I re-installed .NET Framework in April 2013 (following the instructions that were provided).
Now most of the newer updates will install but some old updates will not install.
I have to deselect the ones that keep failing each time or newer updates will not install either.
I have been working on this for over 7 months.
I have tried all of the answers on this site but several windows updates for .NET Framework still won’t install.
Is there a .NET Framework version somewhere that I can just re-install that already has all of the updates included???
Can someone please help?

Security Update for Microsoft.NET Framework 2.0 SP2 on Windows Vista SP2 and Windows Server 2008 SP2 x86 (KB2742601) (Published:
1/8/2013) will not install.
KB2742601 first failed to install on 1/9/2013 with code 80071A2C and kept failing with this code until 3/10/2013 when it failed with code 80070643.
Then, from 3/29/2013 to 8/10/2013 it failed with either code 80071A2C or code 80070643.
It might have failed with other codes between January and August but I don’t know for sure. I randomly checked the records in my update history
to find the ones listed above and then went record by record to find when it changed again.
Between 8/5/2013 and 8/10/2013 my computer has, periodically, not been able to install any updates. Sometimes I start installing the updates at
night and they are still trying to install the next morning. I have to power off my computer to get back on. After I restart my computer, KB2742601 is still pending installation with code 80242014 listed on my windows update history.
