Does Entity Framework 6 support .NET 4.0?

I believe Entity Framework 6 is intended for .NET 4.5. I'm wanting to use it for a Visual Studio 2010 project, so .NET 4.5 isn't available.

Does it support .NET 4.0 and hence Visual Studio 2010?

As of writing, on October 2018, latest EF 6.2.0 still supports .NET 4.0 and works very fine in Visual Studio 2010.

Entity Framework 6 does support .NET 4.0. You should update your version of NuGet then try again. You can find the download at http://www.nuget.org/. I successfully downloaded EntityFramework 6.0.0-rc1 from the main nuget.org feed from an application targeting .NET 4.0
