I have a .NET Framework 4.6.1 project. I'm following instructions on this .NET Upgrade Assistant Page to upgrade to .NET 6.0. After I completed the upgrade, I looked at the project file. The Upgrade tool upgraded the v4.6.1 to netstandard2.0.

Shouldn't the project be upgraded to .NET 6.0 and not netstandard2.0? Is it not possible to upgrade to .NET 6.0 from .NET Framework 4.6.1.

<TargetFrameworkVersion>v4.6.1</TargetFrameworkVersion>

to

<TargetFramework>netstandard2.0</TargetFramework>

You can find some solution on this link:

Migrate from .net standard to .net 6 using the upgrade tool

Already answered.

But based on my understanding. If you update a class library then the assist tool will change your project to netstandard.

After that I think you are able to change it via the csproj to .net6.
