Multiple products: Windows 8.1 does not allow .Net Framework to install properly

Authors list

Windows 8.1 has some issues with Microsoft .Net Framework which will require us to manually install it before attempting other installation procedures. This affects the Microsoft SQL Server installation and the Windows Mobile Device Center installation, among other things.

Please first make sure your internet connection is active, then go to Control Panel and click Programs and Features, then click Turn Windows features on or off.

Click OK and wait for the installation to complete. Then try rerunning the installation for your Wasp product or the Windows Mobile Device Center.
