The .NET Framework 4.7 will no longer be offered through\u00a0Automatic Updates or actively available on the WSUS channel for computers on Windows Long-Term Servicing Branch (LTSB), including both Windows 10 LTSB clients and Windows Server 2016.

On the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.catalog.update.microsoft.com\/Home.aspx\">Microsoft Update Catalog<\/a>, we have also provided new .NET Framework 4.7 Windows Update bundles specifically for LTSB computers to allow enterprises to import the updates.

At this time we&#8217;re throttling the release similar to what we have done with previous .NET Framework releases. Over the next few weeks we will be closely watching install telemetry and your feedback about any regressions or other issues and based on these we will slowly open up throttling.<\/p>\n<p>While the release is throttled, you can use the <strong>Check for updates<\/strong> feature to get .NET Framework 4.7.<\/p>\n<p><em>Note<\/em>: throttled updates are offered at a lower priority than unthrottled updates, so if you have other <strong>Recommended<\/strong> or <strong>Critical<\/strong> updates pending those will be offered before this update.<\/p>\n<p>Once we open up throttling, in most cases you will get the 4.7 update with no further action necessary. If you have modified your AU settings to notify but not install you should see a notification in the system tray about this update.<\/p>\n<p>The deployment will be rolled out to various geographies globally over several weeks. So, if you do not get the update offered on the first day and do not want to wait until the update is offered, you can use the <strong>Check for updates<\/strong> feature, as described above.<\/p>\n<h3>Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) and Catalog<\/h3>\n<p>WSUS administrators will see this update in their WSUS admin console. The update is also available in the MU Catalog for download and deployment.<\/p>\n<p>When you synchronize your WSUS server with Microsoft Update server (or use the\u00a0Microsoft Update Catalog site for importing updates), you will see the updates for .NET Framework 4.7 published for each platform.<\/p>\n<h2><span>More Information <\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span>.NET 4.7 DirectX dependency<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The .NET Framework 4.7 update for Windows 7 SP1, Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Windows Server 2012 require the DirectX dependency (%windir%\\system32\\d3dcompiler_47.dll) to be present before .NET 4.7 will be offered to the PC. This ensures that the PC is never in the situation where .NET 4.7 is present without the DirectX dependency satisfied since that would be a broken\/unsupported state.<\/p>\n<p>On a related note, the DirectX dependency is available in the June 2017 Monthly Rollup as a Recommended update under the following Knowledge Base Articles:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: left\">Windows 7 SP1 and Server 2008 R2 SP2: <a href=\"https:\/\/support.microsoft.com\/kb\/4022719\">KB4022719<\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: left\">Windows Server 2012: <a href=\"https:\/\/support.microsoft.com\/kb\/4022724\">KB4022724<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The DirectX dependency is also available outside of the Monthly Rollup as an independent\/standalone package in the Microsoft Update Catalog <a href=\"http:\/\/www.catalog.update.microsoft.com\/Search.aspx?q=4019990\">here<\/a> in case you need to install this independently.<\/p>\n<h3>Language Packs<\/h3>\n<p>In addition to the language neutral package the .NET Framework 4.7 Language Packs are also available on Windows Update. These can be used to if you have a previous language pack for .NET installed as well as if you don&#8217;t, but instead have a localized version of the base operating system or have one or more Multilingual User Interface (MUI) pack installed.<\/p>\n<h3><span>Blocking the automatic deployment of .NET 4.7<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Enterprises may have client machines that connect directly to the public Windows Update servers rather than to an internal WSUS server. In such cases, an administrator may have a need to prevent the .NET Framework 4.7 from being deployed to these client machines in order to allow testing of internal applications to be completed before deployment.<\/p>\n<p>In such scenarios, administrators can deploy a registry key to machines and prevent the .NET Framework 4.7 from being offered to those machines. More information about how to use this blocker registry key can be found in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/support.microsoft.com\/help\/4024204\">KB4024204<\/a>:\u00a0 How to temporarily block the installation of the .NET Framework 4.7 and its corresponding language packs<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Updated 6\/19\/2017<\/strong>: Added knowledge base article numbers for the .NET 4.7 redistributable and language packs.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Updated: 9\/14\/2017 We are happy to announce the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7 is now available on Windows Update, Windows Server Update Services (WSUS), and the Microsoft Update (MU) Catalog for the following operating systems: Client platforms: Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 Anniversary Update (Version 1607) Server platforms: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":712,"featured_media":58792,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[195],"tags":[4,157,159,160],"class_list":["post-10876","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dotnet-framework","tag-net","tag-windows-update","tag-wsus","tag-wu"],"acf":[],"blog_post_summary":"<p>Last Updated: 9\/14\/2017 We are happy to announce the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7 is now available on Windows Update, Windows Server Update Services (WSUS), and the Microsoft Update (MU) Catalog for the following operating systems: Client platforms: Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 Anniversary Update (Version 1607) Server platforms: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10876","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/712"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10876"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10876\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/58792"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10876"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10876"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/dotnet\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10876"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
