Solution

Well in the the end it turns out I was being a doofus! I was installing W2K12-KB3191565-x64.msu which is for Server 2012 (Not Server 2012 R2!) Look a bit lower, you need Win8.1AndW2K12R2-KB3191564-x64.msu.

5 1 framework for server 2012 R2

The solution was in front of me the whole time!

  11. Thank you. You have to use the one that starts with “Win8.1”; not “Win2K12”, even though you are on a version of Win2K12. Of course!
