There are also some other failures installing other things with similar errors:

visual studio 2013 error on installation microsoft.net framework 4.51
But no definitive solution that I can see.
Thanks
The problem was: not enough disk space.
The disk wasn't full but was running low, so I made some room and then it installed OK.
I inferred this from reading about other similar errors, though none specific to .NET framework components. Therefore this is probably the cause of many cases of “Error 0x800713ec - Asia" even in other circumstances.
I have no idea why such a meaningless error is used, or why the logs are so unclear as well.

I got this error on Windows Server 2008 R2, installing from a shared drive.
The server had plenty of free space.
I moved the .exe to a local path and tried again. This time it worked.
