Failed to install umbraco 7.5.4 via Nuget/Package Manager in Visual Studio 2010

After opening VS 2010, I created an empty MVC 4 Web app 'UmbracoTest' along with a new solution. View engine is Razor and .Net 4. In Package Manager console, I typed PM>install-package umbracocms and prompt this:

PM> install-package umbracocms

As the error says: You are trying to install this package into a project that targets '.NETFramework,Version=v4.0'. Umbraco depends on ASP.NET MVC 5 which doesn't work on .NET 4.0. In fact, VS2010 does not support .NET 4.5. Instead you will need Visual Studio 2012 or higher.

There is a free community edition download of Visual Studio available if you're a student, open source developer or individual developer.
