I have .NET 6.0 installed, but it's not in the dropdown. How can I switch to .NET 6?

there are separate project templates for .net framework and for .net core make sure you use a template that doesn't say ".net framework" 😉

Thanks How can I update to C# v9? I saw somewhere that you need .NET v.6 or higher

yes, that’s how you update to it—by not using .NET Framework. it comes for free

If you create a .NET 6 project, you will get C# 10 by default

yeah c#9 is only supported since .net 5 which is end of life so .net 6 it is 😉

i mean if you want to avoid getting into the weeds then i would just make a new project with .NET 6 and copy the files over

When creating a new project, prefer using .NET over .NET Framework, unless you have a very specific reason to be using .NET Framework. .NET Framework is now legacy code and only get security fix updates, it no longer gets new features and is not recommended. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/569261465463160900/899381236617855016/unknown.png
