Dear Team,
I have an issue about plugins while trying to build solution on Ranorex version 9.5.2. It gives an error like below. How can I solve this issue?
Thank you for your suggestions.

Hi,

My guess is that you've upgraded from an old Ranorex version (which one?) and that your solution contains several projects?

At first, please try to install .Net 4.6.2 SDK, available here:
