.Net Framework 4 Error Code Hresult 0xc8000222 (Installing Bootcamp Part 1)

Microsoft loves reminding me why I switched to Mac everytime I use a windows machine. IDK about you, but 0xc8000222 doesn’t tell me much. There’s a world of pain when installing windows on a Retina Macbook. So we’ll take it slow:

  1. Open cmd
  2. Type in the command “net stop WuAuServ” (disable windows update)
  3. Go to Run (you can do this by pressing Win + R) and type in “%windir%” (this command let you go to your windows system folder)
  4. Find the folder “SoftwareDistribution” and rename it as “SDold”
  5. Then, go back your previous command prompt and run the command “net start WuAuServ”
  6. Now, try to install .NET Framework again
