.NET Framework 3.5 installation fails with 0x800F0954 error.

When trying to install .NET Framework 3.5 installation fails with 0x800F0954 error.

Cause to this problem is PC connecting to corporate service instead of Windows Update.

How to solve:

1. Disconnect PC from network (so PC won't pull GPO)

2. Change registry "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU\UseWUServer" to 0

3. Restart PC

4. Connect PC to network

5. Install .NET Framework 3.5

6. Restart PC

7. Change registry

"HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU\UseWUServer" back to 1

8. Restart PC

Dell Optiplex 3070 and Dell Latitude 5400 jack problem

I encountered problem with Dell Optiplex 3070 and Dell Latitude 5400, which couldn't access Microsoft Store (due to GPO), and couldn't download Waves MaxxAudio Pro for Dell 2019, without which using headphones with phone jack connector.

Luckily I managed to solve this problem by downloading Waves .appx file from https://store.rg-adguard.net/ (using url:https://www.microsoft.com/store/apps/9pjppgg8tgvg).

Now I needed to download Appx dependencies. I used this link for that purpose https://github.com/j00sean/SimpleWebView/tree/master/SimpleWebView/AppPackages/SimpleWebView_1.0.0.0_Test/Dependencies.

Then I just ran "Add-AppxPackage -Path "Path\to\File" in Powershell, for every package (Framework, Runtime, VCLibs, Waves).

After connecting jack I was greeted by Waves window, prompting me to select device type.
