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.
