In Windows 10, a number of users are trying to install .NET Framework 3.5 and facing an issue. While installing .NET 3.5 using DISM, it produces an error 14003 and gives some Microsoft-Windows-NetFx3-OnDemand-Package error 0x800736b3. Here is what you can do to avoid it.
Error code 0x800736b3 indicates that the Component Store in Windows 10 is corrupted. It corresponds to the text message ERROR_SXS_ASSEMBLY_NOT_FOUND.
[==========================100.0%==========================]
An error occurred – Microsoft-Windows-NetFx3-OnDemand-Package Error: 0x800736b3Error: 14003
The referenced assembly is not installed on your system.
I noticed that most users who faced this issue tried to install .NET Framework 3.5 in Windows 10 using the following command:
dism /online /add-package /packagepath:D:\sources\sxs\microsoft-windows-netfx3-ondemand-package.cab
Here, D: is the drive letter of the Windows 10 setup media.
To resolve this issue, first try to install .NET Framework 3.5 as described in the following article: Offline install of .NET Framework 3.5 in Windows 10 using DISM.
In the mentioned article, the command is different.
If you still cannot install .NET framework 3.5 and get the same error, then it means you need to repair the component store.
Do the following:
- Open an elevated command prompt.
- Type the following command and hit the Enter key:
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup
- Next, type the following command and hit the Enter key:
Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
This should fix the issue and you should be able to install .NET Framework 3.5 in Windows 10.

Advertisеment
It didn’t work.plz suggest another way solve it.
run powershell with adm.prv.
copy
microsoft-windows-netfx3-ondemand-package.cab
from windows installation media drive\sources\sxs to c: drive
run
dism /online /add-package /packagepath:c:microsoft-windows-netfx3-ondemand-package.cab
microsoft-windows-netfx3-ondemand-package.cab (64 bit is 70 MB )
inside dism online is not there
A minor adjjustment, the DISM line should read
dism /online /add-package /packagepath:C:\microsoft-windows-netfx3-ondemand-package.cab
That should work
Is there is any kind of software to enable netfx3 in window 10 without any error.
I also tried ur new method but again it show that error while opening package.
Tried this at first, did not work… then i was stock at restoring health in 20%… i reinstalled the windows 10, but not formatting everything, put the windows 10 files to drive D… run the batch file… it worked… :)
Not entirely sure about this, but make sure to disable your virus scanner. I was stuck on 20%, but after disabling the AV it continued. It seems the AV sometimes makes it impossible to access certain files.
I’ve try some trik to fix this error (0x800736b3) on windows10, but I cant fix it.
maybe any trik I ca try?

Give that guy a cooky, I had a problem with directx though…
When i copy this command in cmd and run. Its give the error 0x800f081e. So what to do now
Error 0x800F081E is CBS_E_NOT_APPLICABLE which means that the update can’t be installed on the current system. This happens when a requirement is missing or the installed files have higher file version.
The suggestion by Baki to copy the microsoft-windows-netfx3-ondemand-package.cab into C:
and use DISM was didnt work for me, but, I adjusted the command to
dism /online /add-package /packagepath:C:\microsoft-windows-netfx3-ondemand-package.cab
This worked
Nice article thanks
My copy of Windows 10 was a free upgrade from windows 7. How do I install .Net framework 3.5 without a physical copy of Windows 10?
You need any ISO image. Otherwise install it from the Internet.
