Can't find .NET Framework 4.7.2 in Programs and Features?

I just install .NET Framework 4.7.2 with Web Installer. After I click restart, it update my Windows 8.1 (you know, the update screen that said "Don't turn off your PC"). Then after a long while, I can access my Windows, then I check Programs and Features and I can't find .NET Framework 4.7.2 anywhere.

I know .NET Framework 4.7.2 is installed successfully on my machine via regedit HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Full

Release = 461814

InstallPath = C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\

Why it isn't install the .NET 4.7.2 in the path C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft.NET\Multi-Targeting Pack?

So how can I uninstall .NET Framework 4.7.2 if I can't find it in Programs and Features?
