However, it is already on my system. The Action Center notice won't go away and it's making one of the svchost.exe processes use around 50% CPU usage. Any way to fix this?

I never seen where action center forcing user to install Microsoft .Net Framework any how install all important updates one of those updates can be update to Microsoft .Net Framework. If updating does not resolve the issue then install the Microsoft .Net Framework 4.6.1 from below Url link.

 

"Microsoft .Net Framework 4.6.1"

if i'm understanding your problem correctly, just put a check mark in the box next to the shown update and click the ok button.

 

this will then download and install the update and the notice will go away.

How long have you let it sit to do the install?

 

 

Have you tried performing the update in Safemode + Networking?

Was able to download updates today (about 20 of them) in 3 groups. CPU usage back to normal, for now. Thanks for all responses.
