Installationsprobleme mit Windows 10 LTSC
The may be some issues with Windows 10 LTSC (Long-Term Servicing Channel). During the Installation an error NetFx48Redist might cancel the installation.
Error 0x80070490: Failed to verify signature of payload: NetFx48Redist
This is caused by an old .NET framework version. the Windows eduVPN client requires the latest version (4.8) of the .NET framework. Standard Windows 10 installations do get the frameworks automatically via Windows update. Windows LTSC are not meant for end user deployment and only get security updates bit no feature updates like new .NET framework versions.
MWN-PC/TUM-PC administrator can select a package for version 4.8 of the .NET framework which you may deploy to your clients. You have to restart the computer after installation to activate the new version. Without restarting your system you are not able to install the eduVPN client.
Think about using Windows 10 Education in the near Future as new problems might arise with Windows LTSC.
