How do you set the Windows SDK target version in VS2010?


I recently installed the Windows 8 SDK version (8.0 & 8.0A) along with the VS2011 Beta. This has had the effect of making all my VS2010 projects attempt to build against Windows SDK version 8.0 instead of 7.1A (which they're supposed to build against). I'm trying to figure out how to set which SDK should be used as the target version. I've found this page:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff660764.aspx

Which states:

To use the Windows SDK tools in Visual Studio 2010

However there is no "General" option under configuration properties.... Does anyone know how to do this?


Solution

  • The documentation you found is slightly wrong: it's available in the project properties, not the solution properties:

    Platform Toolset
