Migrate from VS 2005 to 2012 - Change framework version

Question

I have a project compiled in . Net Framework 2.0, using VS 2005. Now I’m migrating it to VS 2012.

The migration was successful, but the project was not recompiled for . Net Framework 4.5. My need is to recompile it for . Net framework 4.5.

How do I proceed? I’ve tried changing the web.config tag to Version=4.0.0.0, but that alone has had no effect.

Right click on your project, then on Properties.

Then choose the tab Application and you will see a combobox with the label "Target Framework".
