bluebolt Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Yeah, my mistake, I rubbed out 0.0.0 yesterday and presumably that's why this update showed up today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-H Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 So you uninstalled version 0.0.0 of the add-on, and were then offered version 1.0? If so, I will try that, as version 0.0.0 is ancient, and I might as well grab a later version while it's still available! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebolt Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Yes, using method 2 here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/963707/how-to-remove-the-net-framework-assistant-for-firefox I don't use any add-ons, but that net framework assistant has always been there (in red/disabled), so with the recent hullabaloo I decided to finally get rid of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-H Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Thanks, I followed that and was offered the update. It's still version "0.0.0" though, I guess that's correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluebolt Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 I guess so, as I was taken full circle back to where I started, with the .net framework assistant still listed/disabled in my add-ons. I had assumed the add-on would be removed by this procedure. One more step was needed: “Go to C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5\Windows Presentation Foundation\DotNetAssistantExtension and delete everything in that folder but keep the folder name…Start Firefox. The add-on should not be in the list anymore.” https://www.ghacks.net/2009/02/09/remove-microsoft-net-framework-assistant-from-firefox/ So now I am rid of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heinoganda Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Because of .NET Framework 3.5 Assistant add-on for Firefox (KB963707) I have a suitable uninstaller where the update KB963707 is no longer available in WU / MU. Download:here 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FranceBB Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Speaking of .NET Framework, Microsoft is gonna release the new .NET Framework 5.0 on November 2020. They can't wait to drop Windows 7 and do to it what they have done to XP, I guess... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can't wait to drop Windows 7 Microsoft will have "dropped" Win7 in mid-January 2020, so, of course, they would find no justification for a new .NET FW release, 10 months after Win7's EoS, to have backwards compatibility with OSes they wouldn't service at that time ... I'm just lazy to check, but I suspect .NET FW 5.0 to require Win8.1+... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also 2023 when it comes to the extended ''paid'' updates for Professional and Enterprise. I hope that when they'll be released somebody might leak them, of course assuming that the update packages will not be tampered.

Dave-H Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 I've had an Office 2010 update (which didn't break Office again thank goodness) so I guess that's it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
