Step 1:
Hope your ran the same Fixit, if not then run this  Microsoft Fix it 50123



Step 2:

Repair the version of the .NET Framework that did not update. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. Visit the following blog post:
  2. Download dotnetfx_cleanup_tool.zip from the following site:
  3. When you are prompted, click Open, and then click Extract Now.
  4. In the files that you extracted, double-click cleanup_tool.exe.
    If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, provide the password, and then clickContinue.
  5. In the Do you want to run the .NET Framework Setup Cleanup Utility? message, click Yes.
    Note     This tool may be in English only, but it also works for other language versions of Windows.
  6. Click Yes to accept the license agreement.
  7. In the Product to cleanup window, click the drop-down list, select a .NET Framework version that you want to remove, and then click Cleanup Now.
    Note     The cleanup tool does not let you remove the .NET Framework 2.0 in Windows Vista or later versions of Windows because the .NET Framework is installed as an operating system component.
  8. After the .NET Framework is removed, restart the computer.
  9. Download and install the following components:
    .NET Framework 1.1

    Microsoft .NET Framework Version 1.1 Redistributable Package

    .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1 (SP1)

    Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1

    .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 (this will also install the .NET Framework 2.0 SP2 and the .NET Framework 3.0 SP2)
  10. Restart the computer.
  11. Visit Windows Update again, and then check for and install updates.
