Microsoft tells it best at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb398202.aspx but to sum it up:

  1. Right Click the solution and choose Properties
  2. Select the Application tab
  3. In the Target Framework dropdown list choose the framework that you know to be the minimally installed version on your target computer(s).

Also, when creating your new project, you have the option at that time to select the targeted framework.
