prerequisites Installation fail and upgrade or install cannot continue (4287199)

On a completely unpatched version of Windows Server 2012 R2, Desktop Authority may not get past the prerequisites screen due to .NET Framework 4.6 failing to install.  The installation of .NET Framework 4.6 may fail to install because of missing Operating System prerequisites. After clicking Update, the process will wait and after some time it will return to same window with Update button still enabled, meaning that the update failed.
