Why am I unable to select a Target Framework in Visual Studio 2019?

This is when creating a new C# WinForms project. I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling, and seemingly everything I could find online.


Target Framework Selection Box


Other frameworks are installed and are selected appropriately in the Visual Studio installer:

Installed targeting packs
Selected SDK's in Visual Studio Installer
Selected Frameworks in the Desktop Development section of Visual Studio Installer

I think this is because you've created a 'SDK' type project. You need to use the Windows Forms App (.NET Framework) project to target the older frameworks.
