Windows SDK 7.1 Setup failure

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.

I had to uninstall the following:

• "Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x64 Redistributable"
• "Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable"

Before installing the Windows 7.1 SDK, and the install package reinstalls those two during installation.
