I have a progarm I wrote a while ago (2012??) which I need to re-install on a new laptop.

The new latptop has the latest .NET installed which I think is 4.8

When I run the program through Visual Studio 2019, it works fine. I then 'publish' it and when I go to install it using the setup.exe, it states that I 'need the following components:'

.NET Framework 3.5 SP1.

For some reason this then doesnt install so I can get no further.

Ideally I would change my program in Visual Studio to reference the newer version of .NET Framework but I dont know how!

Also, Im not even sure which part of my program uses the .NET Framework. If you can please help with:

1) How to reference the newer version of the .NET Framework

2) Work out what in my programe uses this .NET Framework (as its a pretty simple program).

MAny thanks!
