How can I create an Azure Web App using .NET 10 (LTS)? I only se the .NET 10 (LTS) (Preview)

Carlos Espinoza 75

I am trying to deploy a webapp to production that uses .NET 10 (LTS). I only see .NET 10 (LTS) (Preview) as an option. When will the .NET 10 (LTS) runtime stack be available in Azure?

Thank you for reaching out.

The reason you’re seeing “.NET 10 (LTS) (Preview)” in Azure App Service is because Microsoft rolls out new runtime stacks gradually after the official release. .NET 10 became GA on November 11, 2025, but App Service keeps the Preview tag until all regions finish validation. This phased approach helps ensure stability before marking it fully GA.

The challenge is that the current preview version (RC1) on Azure does not work with the released version of .NET 10.

Hi @samsmithnz

Thank you for reaching out.

.NET 10 is now officially GA, but Azure App Service is still completing its rollout for the GA runtime. The Preview tag will remain until validation across all regions is finished. This process is standard and ensures stability, so it may take a little time before you see the full GA option.

Does the full rollout have an ETA?

Hi @David Braverman

The full rollout doesn’t have a confirmed ETA yet because Azure App Service is validating the .NET 10 runtime across all regions to ensure stability. This is a standard process, and once validation is complete, the Preview tag will be removed. It may take a little time, but everything is progressing toward full GA availability. Typically, this takes a few weeks.

Unfortunately, we can't test with the preview version for the workload in question, because the branch is explicitly for migration to v10.0.0. IIRC the v8 release was available on App Services just a day or two after public release.

We are now dead in the water deploying our app service until .Net 10 is deployed. Wish the .Net 10 announcement would have been delayed until it was actually available in Azure or that there had been a clear disclosure that it was not supported in App Services.

Please accelerate the deployment on Azure.

Thank you for reaching out. We understand the urgency and are actively working to enable .NET 10 support on Azure App Services. In the meantime, we recommend using .NET 8 or 9 for deployments. We’ll keep you updated as soon as .NET 10 becomes available.

Hi Carlos! .NET 10 (LTS) has been officially released, but Azure App Service still lists it as Preview, so it’s not fully GA yet. Microsoft is rolling out the runtime over the next couple of months. For now, you can test with the preview version, but stick with .NET 8 (LTS) for production until .NET 10 GA becomes available.

Microsoft is rolling out the runtime over the next couple of months.

Is it really so that it can take a couple of months?

@Ross Pakk Is it possible to get a more definite date when the .NET 10 GA will be available? "Over the next couple of months" seems to indicate that I should plan for a date on early 2026.
