It just installs the SDK which alone seems to be useless. It says it installs the SDK and includes the target pack, but it doesn't include the latter. The problem is that the Microsoft download page has a broken installer. But that's irrelevant because I did try to install the 4.6.2 runtime which failed because a newer version already existed.īut the issue has already been solved. I assume it's installed because it has always been until now. NET Framework 4.7 in the Windows features dialog.

I may retarget the project to 4.5.1 (or similar) instead, or not load it. NET Framework 4.6.2 but that is not installed. I need to load that project very soon, so what do I have to do to convince VS 2015 to do its job properly? Which is understandable since this is a current Windows 10 system. NET Framework 4.6.2 (not the SDK) but it also refuses to install because a newer version would already be there. So did the SDK installation fail? Or is VS just stupid? Restarting Windows doesn't help. List, there is none for 4.6.2 besides the SDK. While I can see targeting packs for older frameworks in the system's app But I just did install the 4.6.2 SDK offline installer which claims to include the targeting pack.

NET Framework 4.6.2, used by the project, is not installed.

But VS 2015 refuses to load that project on my test machine. It can be loaded and built on the client's computer,Īnd it also works on my main computer (VS 2017). They use Windows 10 and Visual Studio 2015 Update 3, which I have installed on a clean machine. I'm setting up a new computer to analyse a build issue for a client.
