I assume you mean the updates were offerred... Windows Update doesn't
automatically offer MSE itself.

No, but it I always do when installing updates to .NET or Internet
Explorer, at the least. AV's vary.... Norton has a history of
interfering, as well as some others (ESET did for a while)... other AVs
don't cause any trouble most of the time.

That 'symptom' is usually the uninstaller looking for the original
temporary folder that was used (or recorded as used) during the original
installation. Often those folders are deleted by the installer at the
end of the installation, or by the user during maintenance.

No, probably not. It could be a defect in the installer, but if it was,
one would expect to see the issue everywhere, and it is actually not
that common.

There's no good reason to install any .NET version if you don't have
software asking for it during installation, in order to run the
software.
