This usually happens because your target .NET framework version (at the top of the New Project Dialog) is set to something other than .NET Framework 4.5.

  • Right forgot that I am using .Net 4.5 instead of 4.0 now so this was real case. but one question raising in my mind is, if I target 4.5 and create VSIX package will Visual Studio 2012 consumers be able to install and use that package? – Rati_Ge Nov 07 '12 at 08:18
  • Yes, but I presume you mean to ask about VS 2010. :) In that case, no...unfortunately you need to use VS 2010 and the VS 2010 SDK to build extensions that target both 2010 and 2012. – Aaron Marten Nov 15 '12 at 22:09
