I learned that .net 8 is not going to be supported in IOS so I want to start using .net 6 in Visual Studio 2022 Maui. I can't use .net 6 in visual studio because it's not supported anymore. I downloaded .net 6 manually but my .net version is stuck at .net 8 and I can't change it. I can't delete .net 8 either since it's included in Maui. I tried downloading .net 6 using "Open in terminal" option after right clicking a folder, writing "dotnet workload install maui" but this still doesn't change anything. Visual Studio doesn't give me the option of choosing .net 6 and the only way I can use .net 6 is changing target framework from properties which gives errors (.net 6 is not supported) and locks up properties.

    Hello,

    Yes, .NET MAUI6 and .NET MAUI7 support have been ended. You cannot use it.

    Please start with .NET8, see .NET MAUI official support policy | .NET (microsoft.com)

    Best Regards,
