Answer 1

Look at this:

  <PropertyGroup>
    <Configuration Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == '' ">Debug</Configuration>
    <Platform Condition=" '$(Platform)' == '' ">AnyCPU</Platform>
    <ProjectGuid>{875F8E73-22B4-43E1-BD14-957E4FFF3D31}</ProjectGuid>
    <OutputType>Library</OutputType>
    <AppDesignerFolder>Properties</AppDesignerFolder>
    <RootNamespace>Microsoft.Practices.Prism</RootNamespace>
    <AssemblyName>Microsoft.Practices.Prism</AssemblyName>
    <TargetFrameworkVersion>v4.0</TargetFrameworkVersion>
    <TargetFrameworkProfile>Profile158</TargetFrameworkProfile>
    <FileAlignment>512</FileAlignment>
    <ProjectTypeGuids>{786C830F-07A1-408B-BD7F-6EE04809D6DB};{FAE04EC0-301F-11D3-BF4B-00C04F79EFBC}</ProjectTypeGuids>
    <MinimumVisualStudioVersion>10.0</MinimumVisualStudioVersion>
    <CodeContractsAssemblyMode>1</CodeContractsAssemblyMode>
  </PropertyGroup>

It works with this settings

  <PropertyGroup>
    <MinimumVisualStudioVersion>11.0</MinimumVisualStudioVersion>
    <Configuration Condition=" '$(Configuration)' == '' ">Debug</Configuration>
    <Platform Condition=" '$(Platform)' == '' ">AnyCPU</Platform>
    <ProjectGuid>{300F2BB2-2793-4382-AD1B-4BC13C138892}</ProjectGuid>
    <OutputType>Library</OutputType>
    <AppDesignerFolder>Properties</AppDesignerFolder>
    <RootNamespace>Microsoft.Practices.Prism.Lifecycle</RootNamespace>
    <AssemblyName>Microsoft.Practices.Prism.Lifecycle</AssemblyName>
    <TargetFrameworkVersion>v4.5</TargetFrameworkVersion>
    <TargetFrameworkProfile>Profile78</TargetFrameworkProfile>
    <FileAlignment>512</FileAlignment>
    <ProjectTypeGuids>{786C830F-07A1-408B-BD7F-6EE04809D6DB};{FAE04EC0-301F-11D3-BF4B-00C04F79EFBC}</ProjectTypeGuids>
    <CodeContractsAssemblyMode>1</CodeContractsAssemblyMode>
  </PropertyGroup>

But does not with this.

While Visuals Studio shows the same target frameworks (Win Store, .NET 4.5, WP8) in project settings.
