Windows 10: Issue with KB4516066 not installing mscorlib.dll 2.0.50727.8841

We are using Tenable and it is identifying .NET Framework 3.5 being out of date and to apply KB4516066 to fix it. In doing research this patch is indeed supposed to change the version of mscorlib.dll from 2.0.50727.8784 to 2.050727.8841 however after an install and reboot my version is still 8784. Are there any logs I can get to show why or if this patch kicked out any failures. When I go to reinstall the patch it says it's already installed so it appears to have installed correctly. Any help you can give would be much appreciated.

Windows 10 Enterprise 1709 x64

Bad Image Errors - dll files changing to 0 bytes


Hi
Have an unusual problem (to me anyway)

Last week I got "Bad Image" errors with Adobe Lightroom (the program had worked OK previously). Two .dll files were listed as corrupt and in Explorer both were shown has having 0 bytes size. Re-installation resolved the problem.
Today I have had the same "bad image" error with another program. Techsmith SnagIt. Once again it was .dll files and they show in explorer as 0 bytes. The timestamp on the 0 byte dlls is the time of the error i.e. today (not when the files were installed).

What I've done so far :
Ran McAfee viruscan across all disks - no problems reported.
Ran Malwarebytes - no problems reported

Went to the properties for the disk drive and under "Tools" ran error check - nothing found
The disk is an SSD so I went to Samsung Magician which shows drive condition as good and S.M.A.R.T. shows wear levelling count at Current Value 99. I do not use Rapid Mode.

The problems are happening on a Samsung 850 Evo 500GB

Any suggestions welcome

Dave
