I am hearing that Microsoft is not going to provide any further updates for the full .NET Framework after version 4.8. So my question is what will be the last Microsoft supported full .NET Framework version after .NET 4.6?
I am trying to get proper answer instead of just suggestion to move everything in .NET Core.
As documented, The .NET Framework is a component of the Windows operating system:
Beginning with version 4.5.2 and later, .NET Framework is defined as a component of the Windows operating system (OS).
Therefore, it's lifecycle is tied to the lifecycle of the OS it's a part of.
.NET Framework is a component of the Windows OS. Components receive the same support as their parent product or platform.
As long as there is active support for a Windows version that includes .NET Framework 4.8, it will still be supported.
.NET Framework 4.8 is a part of Windows 10, and is also included in Windows 11 so, as of October 2024, its lifecycle is currently dictated by the Windows 11 lifecycle.
