.net core 8.0.10 hosting bundle doesn't install components

I have downloaded the .NET Core Hosting bundle for 8.0.10.

In the past when installing this bundle it will install the following components:

Microsoft .NET Runtime - version (x64)

Microsoft .NET Runtime - version (x86)

Microsoft ASP.NET Core - version - Shared Framework (x64)

Microsoft ASP.NET Core - version - Shared Framework (x86)

However the latest version, 8.0.10 the bundle does not install any of the above components. It just installs a single line, Microsoft .NET 8.0.10 - Windows server Hosting and nothing else.

Has anyone else noticed this? Is this by design or is something wrong with the package?

    After the updates installed [Microsoft ASP.NET Core Runtime 8.0 8.0.10] on my machine and when I try running Visual Studio, it just errors with "Unable to connect to web server 'StartUpProject'" After uninstalling the update, then VS worked again

    Hi,

    Seems you want to install the latest SDK rather than just the hosting bundle?

    Which version of VS do you have? What if you are just using "Visual Studio Installer" and then https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/how-to-detect-installed-versions?pivots=os-windows#check-sdk-versions to check the latest 8.0.403 is installed?

    The hosting bundle is for production servers.

    Edit: even if using Visual Studio Code, it seems to me you want to install the SDK rather than only just the hosting bundle.

    That also seems to be a problem I am encountering as for a successful install we check to see that all 3 are installed and now only one of them is. It looks like the x64/x86 shared frameworks are not getting installed any more or at least are now no longer separate pkgs in the hosting bundle? Thats why its called a bundle as it is 3 pieces.
