title: ASP.NET Core Application (.NET Framework) for Windows x64 only error in project.assets.json
body: <p>I want to simplify my configuration in my ASP.NET Core Web Application (.NET Framework) application using VS 2017.</p>
  
  <p>I already know that my website will be running under Windows/IIS in x64 environment and .NET 4.6.2. There is no chance in the foreseen and unforeseen future for this application to use any other environment from the dev to production.</p>
  
  <p>So, I only need Debug x64 and Release x64 modes only. (AnyCPU and x86 are not needed!), so I went ahead and removed all other configuration from the project.</p>
  
  <p>Now, upon compilation, I am getting the following error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>'C:\Projects\MyProject\My.Website\obj\project.assets.json' doesn't
    have a target for '.NETFramework,Version=v4.6.2/win7-x64'.<br /></p>
    
    <p>Ensure you
    have restored this project for TargetFramework='net462' and
    RuntimeIdentifier='win7-x64'. MD.Website  C:\Program Files
    (x86)\Microsoft Visual
    Studio\2017\Enterprise\MSBuild\Sdks\Microsoft.NET.Sdk\build\Microsoft.NET.Sdk.targets</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>I am developing on Windows 7, I am not sure how to fix this one. Any idea?</p>
