.Net Framework 4.7.2 Installation error

AFAIR there are two different installers for .NET framework: one running online, i.e. getting the installation files over the internet at runtime, and the other offline, having all necessary files inside the installer.
I can't see from your log which one you used, but the line "Using Simultaneous Download and Install mechanism" is a strong indication for an online installation. The error message you get also points in that direction, as most results for an internet search on that error point to online web server authentication issues.
The offline installer has the name ndp472-kb4054530-x86-x64-allos-enu.exe and is about 80 MB large. It can be downloaded from here.

Used both, the off-line version, as well as the internet version. Both failed with the certificate error. Did this on two Dell M6400 laptops, both had same failure. Coincidence that both failed installs are Dell M6400's? No other devices available to try again.

Maybe the certificates are no longer valid, expired, and there are no new ones because the OS is no longer supported.

That is a good thought. That would explain why both laptops failed. I've no other devices to try again.

I was hesitant at first to upgrade, but I'm glad I did.

I just updated my hardware because of similar issues, the processor and main board were 10 years old.
Sometimes it could take a while but it always did eventually open. Now it's almost instantaneous.

RE: TSRE....if I do not do the random clicking, TSRE will not load. I've let it sit for over 25 minutes after clicking the 'load' button.
Aren't computers wonderful ....
