Net Framework install error 0x80070643

Hello.

Sorry I had to open a new question about this problem, being the fact there are many posts related to this error. The reason is the existing posts are quite old/inactive and I am not convinced somebody will read the updates.

I have a problem.

.net framework does not finish the installation.

I have a limited time local Admin account for software setups.

I used offline install package for v 4.5.2 and 4.6.1.

Both setups ends the same way. (error 0x80070643)

I tried to run setup in safe mode but I was not possible.

Currently is installed the version 4.5.1.

Microsoft FixIt did not fix anything.

Reboot did not fix anything.

Uninstall and reinstall the .net Framework is not a solution. (the machine is corporate)

Windows update won't run since I am not admin and the LocalAdmin account does not allow access to the network.

This is the html log.

How can I attach it?

As a hint... here is a fragment from txt log:

There are 287 warnings of this kind in the log.

Any idea?

    Gerry's suggestion for the .net repair tool worked.  Thanks Gerry.  I have spent weeks trying to get this issue resolved as I have had minimal time to research.  your solution saved me from losing the rest of my hair. thanks again!

    Before to run Microsoft .NET Framework Repair Tool I tried to uninstall NET v 4.5.1 existing on the computer but the setup returned "fatal error" in short time.

    So I followed the Gerry advice.

    After the first step (run repair tool), I ran again the NET  4.6.1 setup with the same result (error).

    On the second step, the repair tool tried to repair the existing NET installation without success because it had not web access.

    I downloaded the offline installer NET v.4.5.1 and ran the setup. Curiously, the setup did not ask for repair or uninstall option as I expected. The setup went as if it was the clean installation of the NET v.4.5.1. It finished without error.

    After that I installed v.4.6.1 with success.

    Thanks.
