Does Windows 10 20H2 version supports .NET Framework 4.7 and below?

Hi,

Does Windows 10 20H2 version supports and .NET framework 4.7.1 and 4.6.2?

I see in one of the article that the Native version for 20H2 is 4.8. does it means other frame works will not work with 20H2 version?

Thanks
Manoj

From MSDN, at .NET Framework system requirements :

"Windows 10 October 2020 Update (version 20H2)
Preinstalled with the OS : .NET Framework 4.8"
"If the OS comes pre-installed with a particular .NET Framework version, you can't install a previous 4.x version on the same machine."

Thanks for the reply. Yes, we cant install previous version.

In my case, currently my app is in 4.7.1 framework, if my machine is upgrade to 20H2, can i still run the app without changing the framework?

It should work.
For example, I have 4.8 installed on my Windows 10 OS (1909) and all my applications targetted to 4.7.2 work

Hi Manoj

As Castorix31 describes:
If the OS comes pre-installed with a particular .NET Framework version, you can't install a previous 4.x version on the same machine.

For more specific information, we could refer to this link:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/get-started/system-requirements

Also, here is a link about NET official support policy, which may help you make a better understanding .
https://dotnet.microsoft.com/platform/support/policy#:~:text=Support%20for%20.NET%20Framework%20follows%20the%20Lifecycle%20Policy,supported.%20View%20the%20.NET%20Framework%20support%20policy.%20ASP.NET

Best Regards

Thanks for the reply. I understand that it comes with pre-installed and where we cant install lower versions.

But my concern is, currently am suing 1909 version and my apps are working with 4.6.2 and 4.7.1 frameworks. If i upgrade to 20H2, can I still run the apps in 4.6.2/4.7.1 framework ?
