I am migrating application from dot net 4.8 to dot net core 8.

facing error Project ..\folder\folder.csproj targets net8.0. It cannot be referenced by a project that targets .NETFramework,Version=v4.8.

Project ..\folder1\folder1.csproj targets net8.0. It cannot be referenced by a project that targets .NETFramework,Version=v4.8.

Project ..\folder2\folder2.csproj targets net8.0. It cannot be referenced by a project that targets .NETFramework,Version=v4.8.

all errors are in Folder3 project, which depends on folder, folder1 and folder2.

folder, folder1 and folder2 are migrated in dot net core.

If Folder3 is needed, maybe the Folder3 must be migrated too.

According to error message, the Folder3 is still based on .NET Framework. Maybe there is another Folder3 or it was not adjusted correctly yet.

I have another one question,

I have run upgrade assistant on my API project to convert it to dot net core 8. I have modified csproj file.
But when I am trying to run upgrade assistant on single controller. It is not showing controller in controller's dropdown. whereas it is showing classes and views in drop down in respective dropdowns.
