Windows 10: .Net 4.5 error on installing Office 2013

Hi, I am trying to reinstall Office 2013 after upgrading to Windows 10. The installer comes up with the error "Setup is unable to proceed due to the following error - This product requires .Net Framework 4.5":




When I try to install .Net 4.5 it says I already have .Net 4.6 as part of the operating system (and it won't let me remove/disable it.

Any ideas?

:)

 

Microsoft .Net Framework error when trying to install Office 2013 on Windows 10

Trying to install MS Office 2013 (it's a volume license edition from work).

Getting the following error straight away (no chance to choose components or input license key ...) :

"Setup is unable to proceed due to the following errors: This product requires Microsoft .Net Framework 4.5. Correct the issue listed above and rerun setup."

Thing is I tried installing .Net Framework 4.5, but it says I already have it or a more recent version, which is true because in the "Turn Win Features on/off" dialog box, I see .NET framework 4.6 (so a higher version than what is requested in the error
msg) AND 3.5. Both are turned on.

Funny thing is I can install the MS Office 2013 version from the web - the trial version. It will not let me activate it with my product (license) key from work however, saying it's t a volume license edition.

Tried a variety of things including .net cleanup tools. I don't even understand what .net is and why it's needed to install Office. Tried enabling / disabling .net and running the install but to no avail.

 

Autocad 2013 will not work since upgrade to Windows 10

As Windows 10 uses 'Frame net 4.6' and where Windows 7 used '4.5' where I could run AutoCAD 2013.

Would it of any use to download and install 'Frame net 4.5'

Just a thought. ??

thanks

 

I am having the same exact issue, did you solve this?
