The target framework 'netcoreapp3.0' is out of support and will not receive security updates in the future.

After upgrading to the latest Visual Studio version(16.8.1) that added support for .NET 5, I got a new warning when opening an existing .NET 3.0 solution:

The target framework 'netcoreapp3.0' is out of support and will not receive security updates in the future. Please refer to https://aka.ms/dotnet-core-support for more information about the support policy.

ExampleApp

C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\5.0.100\Sdks\Microsoft.NET.Sdk\targets\Microsoft.NET.EolTargetFrameworks.targets

You don’t have to panic when you see this warning. The only thing you need to be aware of is that some versions of .NET have a short support lifecyle where other versions are LTS (Long Term Support) versions. .NET Core 3.0 is a release with a short support lifecycle(support ended March 3 2020) where .NET Core 3.1 is an LTS version.

To get rid of this warning upgrade your app to .NET Core 3.1.

Remark: Be aware that .NET 5 is also a version with short support. Support will end with the release of .NET 6 (planned for February 2022).

Help! I accidently enabled HSTS–on localhost

I ran into an issue after accidently enabling HSTS for a website on localhost. This was not an issue for the original website that was running in IIS and had a certificate configured. But when I tried to run an Angular app a little bit later on http://localhost:4200 the browser redirected me immediately to https://localhost . Whoops! That was not what I wanted in this case. To fix it, you need to go the network settings of your browser, there are available at: chrome://net-internals/#hsts edge://net-internals/#hsts brave://net-internals/#hsts Enter ‘localhost’ in the domain textbox under the Delete domain security policies section and hit Delete . That should do the trick…
