Windows 10: Optional feature installation issue: can't Add any feature

Hi, community!

I'm trying basically to Add Windows Media Player, When I'm trying to add it and when I do preform "install" - I click "back" and the progression is all gray, no progress. It's taking some time and the installation is finished (without any progression mark on the tab or anything still). There is no error as well.

When I enter "See optional feature history" the installation is succeeded. It does the same with any optional installation. The thing is - even though it seemed to succeeded, the features appears in the optional feature, but I can't find it anywhere on the computer or in the Control Panel-> Turn Windows features on or off. Restarting several times, installation/uninstall won't work for me. I've tried many guides to do so, but nothing helps so far, please help.

Looking for your guidance,

greetings!

:)

 

No Features to Install Under Optional Features?

Same issue - looking to install ssh not a langpack. Fast track; recently completed a "fresh start" reinstall.

Get-WindowsOptionalFeature -online | ? { $_.FeatureName -like "*ssh*" } | FT

returns nothing

manage optional features > Add a feature

results in "no features to install"

any ideas?

 

No Features to Install Under Optional Features?

Same issue here. I'm trying to install Windows Media Player but the optional features page doesn't list anything available to install.

 

manage optional features

Hi Alicia,

There could be a setting that has been configured to open the Manage optional features automatically. We'd like to know a few things so we could provide an accurate resolution. Kindly answer the following:

• Have you made any changes to your computer prior to this issue?
• Is Manage optional features popping up right after you turn on your computer or while using it?
  
• Are you trying to disable the Manage optional features completely?

If you're trying to disable any of the optional features, here are the steps on how to do it :

• Go to Control Panel and click on Programs.
• Click on the Turn Windows features on or off.
• On Windows Features, select the feature(s) that you want to enable or disable and click
  OK.
  
• Restart your computer as the wizard says to complete the task.

We'll be waiting for your response.
