Hi,

 

I would like to migrate our web application which has been developed in vb.net web application (MVP) using .Net Framework 4.7 into .Net 8.0. But I am not able to do it. I had used .Net Upgrade Assistant. Can we migrate vb.net web application into .Net 8.0? Kindly clarify.

Thanks

Banu

    Hi @Banu ,

    VB.NET is no longer directly supported in .NET 6 and beyond for web applications.

    The most direct path forward is to translate the VB.NET application to C#, which has full support in .NET 8.0. This approach can leverage .NET 8’s modern APIs, enhanced performance, and long-term support.

    Best Regards.
