Question

User156383950 posted

Hi,

I have installed dotnet 3.5 framework in my machine. In IIS, when i go to properties--> Asp.net settings on a web site,  i am able to see 1.1 and 2.0 frameworks available.

My application developed using asp.net 3.5 is working fine under 2.0 framework setting, but why is 3.5 not available?

Is this proper way to use 2.0 setting for 3.5 application

Yes. IIS is not concerned with the .NET Framework Version, it's concerned about the version of the CLR. Since the .NET Framework 3.0 and 3.5 still use the 2.0 CLR, there is nothing that needs to change in IIS.

.NET 4.0 will be the next version of .NET to introduce a new version of the CLR.
