Answer 1

If building from the command line:

From the command line do a dnu restore. This will force an update of dependency resolution. Pretty much anytime you change the runtime either upgrading to a new one or switching the active runtime I would do a restore.

If building from visual studio:

Visual studio uses the sdk property to determine which runtime to use when building and restoring. This can be different than the runtime set active by dnvm. Setting the active runtime in dnvm does not change the runtime used by the IDE. Setting the target in VS does not change the active runtime on the command line.

To change the runtime used by Visual Studio either:

Set the minimum dnx version for the entire solution.

Edit the global.json (solution level file) manually. Set or change the value for "sdk" to the desired version of the runtime. This sets the defaults for all projects and it can be overridden at the project level below.

OR

Set the desired runtime for the project

Right click on a project > Properties > Application

Check Use specific DNX version. Set to desired version, platform, and architecture
