I get this message now on 3 PC's running Windows 10 latest version. Net Framework latest version is installed on all. Patch My Pc loads but has weird characters and no list of apps to update. Very strange.
See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

I had exactly the same experience: Patch My PC Home Update locked up and showed this .NET error.
To cure this I first tried to repair Windows Update
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4027322/windows-update-troubleshooter
(with no success) and repair the .NET installation
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30135
(with no success) but finally managed to figure out a solution:
-
Do a complete .NET uninstall by running Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Turn Windows features on or off
-
Uncheck
.NET Framework 3.5
-
Uncheck
.NET Framework 4.6
-
Select OK
-
Restart your PC
-
Re-open Control Panel -> Programs and Features -> Turn Windows features on or off
-
Check
.NET Framework 3.5 (check only this single item)
-
Select OK
-
Restart your PC
-
Run Windows Update
This worked for me.
Hi there,
I also experience this issue and tried the suggested solution to deactivate and re-activate .NET in the features section of my Win10 box.
Unfortunately this doesn't led me to a solution.
The error message still appears and the program terminates at this point.
Any other suggestions what to do?
Regards,
daniel
