Cannot target .NET Framework 4.7.2 in VS 2017 15.7.5

I have installed .NET Framework 4.7.2 from Microsoft's website. However, when I'm in Visual Studio 2017 (version 15.7.5 (currently the latest)) I cannot target Framework 4.7.2 even though it is installed on the computer. All other Frameworks are there.

Target Framework

When running the Visual Studio installer there is only the option to install up to 4.7.1.

VS Installer frameworks

Does VS 2017 15.7.5 literally not support targetting project to 4.7.2 yet or what might be going on here?

For developing with .NET Framework 4.7.2, the .NET Framework Dev Pack must be installed, not just the runtime.

Currently it can be found at Download .NET Framework 4.7.2, but that location is likely to change in future.
