I am trying to install Windows SDK for Windows 7 with .NET Framework 4 but when I open the setup I receive an error:
Some Windows SDK components require the RTM .NET Framework 4. Setup detected a pre-release version of .NET Framework 4. If you continue with Setup, these components will not be installed. If you want to install these components, click Cancel, then install the .NET Framework 4 from https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=187668 and then rerun Setup.
Click OK to continue.
When I went to install the .NET Framework 4 it appears a message saying that there is already the .NET Framework 4 on my PC:
The Microsoft .NET Framework 4 is already part of the operating system. No need to install the .NET Framework 4 redistributable. More information.
An equal or higher version of the .NET Framework 4 has already been installed on the computer.
I don't know what to do anymore. I am using Windows 10 Enterprise (x64).

I had an older version of .NET Framework and the C++ 2010 Redistributable x64 and x86 both. Uninstalling the 2010 allowed me to continue with no issues. I didn't uninstall the older version of .NET, but I did download and install the latest version FIRST.
The only component in the SDK I wanted to install was the Windows Performance Toolkit. I still got the warning at the start of the install. But it went through with anyway.
Maybe that adds a little thought in here...

With Windows 10 x64, the setup is blocked by:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Full\Version
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Client\Version
Change both values temporarily to 4.0.30319
and the setup will let you continue. Make sure you edit the registry with elevated privileges, otherwise you will not be allowed to change the values.

In order to deal with this problem, I uninstalled my .NET
framework version 4.6
and installed 4. Then I installed the SDK, and the problem was gone.

I had to uninstall the following:
Before installing the Windows 7.1 SDK, and the install package reinstalls those two during installation.
