#2 – Enable .NET Framework 3.5 from the DISM Command

Step 2. After performing first step, go to Cortana and type Command Prompt. Now, right-click on Command Prompt from results and select the first option Run as administrator.

Step 3. In the command prompt window, type the following command and press the Enter key.
