.NET Framework 4.6.1 Release Notes

.NET Framework release notes describe product improvements grouped by product area. Each change includes a Microsoft-internal VSTS bug number, which acts as a useful unique ID for each change (can be used to report issues or when calling Microsoft Support).

Post-release servicing updates are also included, appended to the end of each product area. The following servicing updates have been included:

ASP.NET

  • TreeNode.ImageTooltip is rendered as title attribute [101518]

  • Added a MatchTimeout property to RegularExpressionAttribute [142685]

  • In the following scenarios, ASP.NET may duplicate the cookie in response headers:

    • Before a request cookie is loaded, the response cookie is added.
    • A response cookie is added, and then a native module sets the response cookie.

    With the fix, ASP.NET makes sure that response cookies are not duplicated. [359376] [Added: May 2017]

  • If two WPF applications that target Side by Side (SxS) .NET versions (3.5 and 4.X) are loaded in the same process issues can occur on touch/stylus enabled machines.

This fix allows WPF to properly differentiate between both DLLs and function correctly. [362710] [Added: May 2017]
