upgrade framework target version in Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2013

[ftbrady]

I have a vb.net application that uses WebRead to interact with a web site. That web site has upgraded "Transport Layer Security (TLS)". Now my app can no longer interact with the site (Error: "Could not create SSL/TLS secure channel")

I am using .net framework version 3.5 and the site help personnel informed me that I probably need to upgrade to .net framework version 4.7.

However, my Visual Studio "about" information says my .net framework version is already 4.7:

Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2013
Version 12.0.40629.00 Update 5
Microsoft .NET Framework
Version 4.7.03056

However, the registry shows that I'm running .net framework version 3.5 (according to the procedure suggested to find out what .net framework version is installed).

I'm running on windows 10 32 bit platform.

I hope someone can help me understand what is going on and how to fix it.

Thank you
