Hi @Jerohan Mukul ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

Please see the document:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/tools/sdk-errors/netsdk1045

And check the global.json file as follows:

{  
  "sdk": {  
    "version": "6.0.400"  
  }  
}  

If it doesn’t work, please try to repair your VS though Visual Studio Installer > More > Repair.

Sincerely,
Anna
