Hi - I have a project to upgrade the .net version to .net 4.8 . While all seems straight forward for the installation I wanted see if there is something I need to be cautious about. For the web servers, do I need to point the app pool or any other component to the new .net version or it happens automatically. Anything to be cautious about the Active Directory Servers? Thank You

    Hi @Dukat-2021

    What is your version of .NET framework on the server? If it is v4.0, then you don’t need to change it. If it is v2.0, then you can refer to below steps to update .NET framework IIS.

    1. Open IIS manager.
    2. Click the “Application Pools” node.
    3. Find the corresponding application pool that your web site/virtual directory use. By default there is a "DefaultAppPool" application pool.
    4. Right click the application pool, and then select "Advanced Settings".
    5. Now we can change the ". NET Framework Version".
