Force Teamcity to Ignore tool version in a .net project

Question

I am trying to build ASP.NET MVC project using Teamcity. In my .CSProj file, we have specified ToolVersion 4.0. Which means TeamCity will use MSBuild verison 4.0 to build the project. On our build server this is not available. Can I force TeamCity to ignore this setting and use a new version of MSBuild.

This is how my .csproj file looks:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Project ToolsVersion="4.0" DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">

Yes, you can set MSBuild version in runner option.

i tried it but it seems this option is overridden by ToolVersion in my .csproj file. – SharpCoder Jan 24 '20 at 15:19
You need to check your agent properties for that. – Nirav Mistry Jan 27 '20 at 17:58
