The reference assemblies for framework “.NETFramework,Version=v4.6.2” were not found

Question

When trying to compile a solution, I get the following build error:

Error MSB3644 The reference assemblies for framework \".NETFramework,Version=v4.

Answer 1

It turns out that I had installed the .NET Framework v4.6.2, not the Developer Pack for 4.6.2. Doh!
