VSTS Hosted Build .Net Framework 4.6.2

Question

I'm getting errors during VSTS build process stating .net 4.6.2 is not found. Any idea when it will be made available on the build agents?

To resolve this, install the SDK or Targeting Pack for this framework version or retarget your application to a version of the framework for which you have the SDK or Targeting Pack installed. Note that assemblies will be resolved from the Global Assembly Cache (GAC) and will be used in place of reference assemblies. Therefore your assembly may not be correctly targeted for the framework you intend.

Answer 1

Download the correct DEVELOPER targetting pack from here:

Answer 2

First of all, be sure that the .NET framework are you using is listed here: Targeting .NET Platforms (I don't understand why 4.6.1 is not listed and 4.6.2 is listed.).

To resolve the issue about that the .Net Framework is not found, use Nuget 3.5.0 RC2. It solved the issue for me.
