Hi There,
We have class library project on .netframework 4.7.2 , now want to port this class library project .net 5( basically targeting .net core)
We opened class library project in 2019 and migrated package.config to package reference , after migration i dont see packagereference. Right clicking on project -- then--> properties -- > application : now when I am trying to change target framework to.net5 I am not seeing it.
I have installed visual studio 2019 The .NET Desktop Runtime also includes the .NET Runtime and visual studio
