    Hey there! (I am using Visual Studio 2022 Community Edition)
    I was facing the same problem.
    the solution to this was modifying the packages in Visual Studio - and adding - ASP.NET Web Application (.NET Framework) package.

    Please follow the steps below:

    Go to File
    New project
    Scroll down, at last, you'll see - Not finding what are you looking for
    go to Install More tools and Features

    it will open Visual Studio Installer

    go to Modify
    Go to INdividual packages Tab
    Search For: " .NET Framework project and item templates " and mark the checkbox.
    Install the packages

    Installing .NET Framework project and item templates ask for 1.6GB of space requirement,
    which might be the reason for not being included by default in the first place during the Visual Studio 2022 installation.

    It should solve your problem
    Regards,
    Hritthik

    Hi @WEI HAN TAN ,
    Did you select "ASPNET and web development" when you install the visual stuido? If you installed it, you only search "Web application". If you didn't install,you must to install the sdk.

    For whatever is worth. I could not find ASP.NET Web Application (.NET Framework), when I tried to update to add .NET Framework project and item templates using the Individual components tab of Visual Studio installer I could not find it anywhere.

    I then uninstalled ASP.NET and web development and reinstalled it. During the reinstall process I could see .NET Framework project and item templates so I selected and it all seems to work just fine.

    I am using Visual Studio 2022

    I hope this helps you!

    When you Create New Project, use the search box and type "web application". Among the ones listed, find ASP.NET Web Application (.Net Framework), and pick the one with C# listed at the bottom.

    Once you've used a project template, it appears in your "Recent project templates" list on the side of the Create a new project box, and you won't have to search for it again.

    When you step through creating your project with that template, it will ask you to select Empty, Web Forms, MVC, Web API, or Single Page Application. Pick your preferred flavor.
