My Windows Foundation Package only has Internet Explorer Available, .NET framework Broken

Question

Hello everyone.

I'm encountering some difficulties with my Microsoft-Windows-Foundation-Package. While I have Internet Explorer installed and functioning properly, it appears that other crucial elements associated with the Microsoft-Windows-Foundation-Package are missing or not working as expected. .NET framework doesnt happen to appear. And I need that.

Specifically, I have tried utilizing DISM (Deployment Image Servicing and Management) and SFC (System File Checker) to troubleshoot the situation, but unfortunately, these tools haven't been able to resolve the issue. Despite executing the necessary commands, the components remain inaccessible or non-functional.

I would greatly appreciate any guidance or suggestions on how to rectify this situation. If there are alternative steps or solutions that I should try, please let me know. Additionally, if there is any additional information or logs that I should provide to assist with the troubleshooting process, please advise.

I'll be listing some things i tried:

SFC /SCANNOW: Didnt work

DISM /ONLINE /CLEANUP-IMAGE /RESTOREHEALTH: Didnt work

Updating windows 10: Got error code (0x80073701)

Reset windows update components: Didnt work

Using MSU file: Didnt work

Thank you in advance for your assistance. I look forward to any insights the community can offer to help resolve this issue.
