Building using MSBuild.exe : "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Professional\Msbuild\Current\Bin\MSBuild.exe" ConsoleApp2.csproj /t:restore /v:m generate NU1701 warning

warning NU1701: Package 'Microsoft.Build 17.1.0' was restored using '.NETFramework,Version=v4.6.1, .NETFramework,Version=v4.6.2, .NETFramework,Version=v4.7, .NETFramework,Version=v4.7.1, .NETFramework,Version=v4.7.2, .NETFramework,Version=v4.8' instead of the project target framework '.NETCoreApp,Version=v3.1'. This package may not be fully compatible with your project

Ask us questions

This issue was originally opened on NuGet/Home#11771 but as it turns out NuGet by design fallback on .NET Framework if no dependency group matches TFM (i.e. .NET Core 3.1 in my case).
Is there a way we could work around this properly (no warn disabling)?

Are you saying you want an error instead of the warning?

No. Is there a way to workaround this other than upgrading to .NET 6 or mute the warning ? I would have imagined the packages Microsoft.Build.* list all compatible TFM in their nuspec

Newer versions of MSBuild only run on newer .NET runtimes, so if you want to target the latest MSBuild, you'll have to update your target framework.

My bad. Thank you for your time, I'll close this then
