I'm trying to install Visual Studio C# 2010 Express, and it fails when installing .Net Framework 4. The error in the log is:

Installation failed with error code: (0x00003B01), "The resource loader cache doesn't have loaded MUI entry."

I've tried installing .Net Framework 4 using the standalone installer, but that also fails with the same error (at least it's consistent). I've tried running the Microsoft .Net cleanup tool, but that doesn't help. I've tried cleaning up the %temp% directory, but that also doesn't help. I've tried Googling but it seems like I'm the only one who has this problem.

Interestingly enough, installing the Client Profile for .Net Framework 4 via Windows Update works (though uninstalling it doesn't help solve this problem).

Anyone have any ideas?

  • MUI refers to the multilingual user interface. Are you using a non-English version of Windows, or do you have non-English settings in the Regional and Language Options? Apr 24, 2011 at 18:37
  • Hmm, I have an English version of Windows 7, and all the settings in the Regional and Language options (that I can see) are for English (Canada). Apr 24, 2011 at 18:56

OK, figured it out. Turns out I was missing some critical system files (although I'm not sure how). I ran the following:

sfc /scannow

which told me there were some errors it couldn't fix. Then I ran the following command to scan the log (sfc will prefix actions it took with [SR]):

findstr /c:"[SR]" %windir%\Logs\CBS\CBS.log >%userprofile%\Desktop\sfcdetails.txt

The path at the end is where you want to save the output - in this case, I decided to put it on my desktop.

There were a couple of error messages related to two files: wvc.dll.mui and wusa.exe.mui. Specifically, there were error messages that it couldn't reproject the files because they were corrupted. They were in fact missing. In order to fix it, I had to extract the files from the original Windows 7 DVD (I followed the instructions here and copy them into C:\Windows\SysWOW64\en-US.

An interesting point is that even after fixing my .Net Framework 4 issues, running "sfc /scannow" still yielded the following messages about wvc.dll.mui and wusa.exe.mui:

Although the ones about reprojecting were gone. Not sure what to make of that.
