I'm chatting with choco maintainers right now. They say it sounds like a fresh win10 install will fail with dotnetfx because M$ now requires anniversary edition to install dotnet. They say:


I don't quite follow you here, the link below states that the .Net framework is pre-installed with Windows 10 and list the versions.  It seems that 1703 was the first to come with 4.7 pre-installed.

What Win 10 version are you using?

I just pasted what they told me. I'm still working on it.
I have Windows 10 enterprise N
Version 1511
OS Build 10586.0
 

Oh.  A very old and unsupported (by MS) version of Win 10. See here for lifecycle info: https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/help/13853/windows-lifecycle-fact-sheet

And 1511 came with .Net 4.6.1, hence the issue with installing VS 2019.
