By default the temp folders on Windows 10 IoT for Thin clients are moved to RAM drive "Z:\" that is limited. If the file you are trying to install extracts to larger than 200Mb then you would need to change the Temp & TMP back to "C:\" temporarily.
- Login into the Admin account, disable HPWF and reboot the OS
- Login back into the Admin account
- Open System Properties and navigate to Advanced Tab
- Open Environment Variables
- Change Temp & TMP from "Z:\" to "C:\"
- Once done try to install the .Net software.
- If you still get error, please reboot once, login into the admin and then try to install it.
- Once the install is complete, ensure to move the Temp & TMP back to "Z:\" then enable HPWF and reboot..

Thank you for the quick reply. I should have thought of that, but its been years since Ive had to mess with these environment variables. I'll mark this resolved after i get it running. This should also fix issues with Windows updates.
