IIS 为我的 AppPool 使用哪个版本的 .NET Framework？

Question

.Net Framework 4.5 was installed on my machine and on the IIS Application Pool, I set the .NET CLR version to 4.0.

My question is when running .NET code in this IIS site, which framework version is it using: 4.0 or 4.5 ?

Please see below screen shots.

Answer 1

The AppPool's .NET CLR Version is different from the .NET Framework Version.

The .NET CLR Version 4.0 is the CLR base for the following .NET Framework Versions:

• 4
• 4.5 (including 4.5.1 and 4.5.2)
• 4.6 (including 4.6.1 and 4.6.2 Preview)

So having a .NET CLR Version of 4.0 just means you support the above Frameworks, which will run under their deployed framework version.

Follow the below steps to get the .Net Version Used by IIS.

1. Open IIS Manager. For information about opening IIS Manager, see Open IIS Manager (IIS 7).
2. On the Connections pane, expand the server node and click Application Pools.
3. On the Application Pools page, select the application pool for which you want to specify a .NET Framework version, and then click Basic Settings in the Actions pane.
4. In the Edit Application Pool dialog box, in the .NET Framework version list, Check the version of .Net Framework. -> Get this version
5. Navigate to the Directory and check the details of the clr.dll-> C:\\Windows\\Microsoft.NET\\Framework64\\Version_got_from_step_4\\clr.dll

Versions of .Net above 4.0 are being upgraded as in-place and the installed version can be checked in the registry path - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\NET Framework Setup\\NDP\\v4\\Full\\release or version
