I have created windows desktop C++/.NET application in WIndows 10 environment using VS 2019. My application should run in Windows 10, Windows server 2016 and 2019. Is there any way to set/enable my application should support different versions of platforms (Windows 10, Windows server 2016 and 2019) from my development. Is there any property or configuration available in VS 2019?

Can you please help me on this.

    If you target the oldest version you want to support, the later ones should just work. Unless you're doing something specific (possibly strictly incorrect) that may not work in tighter secured sever environments you are unlikely to have a problem with server versions, but test on each platform to be sure.
