If you absolutely need the original dotnetfx40fullx86x64intl.exe:

Microsoft provides a .NET Framework Cleanup Tool (original from Aaron Stebner). Remove all .NET 4.0 traces, reboot, then reinstall.

If you actually have a file named ...slimexe, do not run it.


dotnetfx40fullx86x64intl.exe is the official standalone (offline) installer for Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0.

This is useful for computers without internet access, or for system administrators deploying .NET 4.0 across many machines.


In the world of Windows system administration, software development, and legacy application support, few file names inspire as much recognition (and occasional frustration) as dotnetfx40fullx86x64intl.exe. However, in niche deployment communities, a modified, repackaged, or scripted version has emerged under the alias 1install dotnetfx40fullx86x64intlslimexe exclusive.

This article dives deep into what this file is, why it exists, how to use it safely, and how it solves common .NET Framework 4.0 installation failures.

If the framework was partially installed previously, the new install might fail.
