Does Fluent Migrator support .NET Framework 4.5? - msbuild

Recently I'm heard about FluentMigrator and its features and really amazed about it and I want to use this in my new project in .NET Framework 4.5 and when I checked in github I saw that the newest release supports 3.5 and 4.0 and they didnt mention about 4.5 and I googled for any news about 4.5 with fluent migrator and I didnt get any satisfying result so I want to know is it possible to use Fluent Migrator with .NET Framework 4.5

Yes, .NET 4.0 assemblies will work in a .NET 4.5 project. The 4.5 CLR is a new version of the CLR but is backwards compatible with 4.0. See this StackOverflow question and this blog post from Scott Hanselman.
So if you have a class project which is set to target .NET 4.5 and add the .NET 4.0 version of FluentMigrator as a reference (or install the Nuget package) then it will just work.
For FluentMigrator there is no major benefit of having a .NET 4.5 package, due to having to support .NET 3.5, none of the new .NET 4.5 features can be used yet.

.Net standard version for .Net core 2.2

Googled a bit but couldn't find the .Net standard version for .Net core 2.2. Only version I got is,
Any hint please?
As you can see in the table you have uploaded, .NET Standard 2.0 is the latest available and it is fully supported by .NET Core v2.0. As you can see in this release doc. section, .NET Standard 2.1 will be supporting .NET Core 3.0 and also .NET Core 2.2. For the whole page check here.
In my opinion, you can go with .NET Standard 2.0 if you do not deal with extreme things (I mean recently added parts of .NET Core). This can yield some errors but still worth the try.

Does .net framework 3.5 required to install .net framework 4.0?

I'm not cleared in the specification of .NET Framework 4.0. As per my knowledge .net framework 3.0 required .net framework 2.0 and .net framework 3.5 required .net framework 3.0, so I'm not cleared that whether .net framework 4.0 required .net framework 3.5? Whether .net framework 4.0 is standalone or not? I had searched most of the Microsoft helpful sites, but not got anything on that topic. Guys, If you know anything please share.
No, every version of .NET has been standalone. You can install .NET 3.0 with no other version installed, ditto .NET 3.5, ditto 4.0, ditto 4.5 etc.
Now there have been fewer versions of the CLR than there have of the .NET framework overall, but that's a different matter - and doesn't change whether or not you can install .NET without installing anything else.
Likewise some versions of .NET effectively install over the top of others (installing .NET 4.5 when you've got .NET 4.0 installed replaces the .NET 4.0 libraries) but you can still install each version without installing anything else first.

What is the difference in HttpClient in .net 4.0 and .net 4.5

I am working on a project that is currently using an early pre-release .net 4.0 version on HttpClient in System.Web.Http namespace. We know that this version causes conflicts with .net 4.5 version.
We are thinking of upgrading to Visual Studio 2012 and we know that this is going to install .net 4.5 (which we dont currently use). My question(s) is, how drastically different are the two version of the HttpClient class? Or, would the use of the latest .net 4.0 version of HttpClient be enough to get us to a stage where we could install .net 4.5 and not have any conflicts?
Cheers

The two versions are identical from an API perspective and 4.5 is backwards compatible with 4.0 from a functionality perspective. The 4.5 version does support a couple new features on WebRequestHandler (ContinueTimeout & ServerCertificateValidationCallback) so avoid those.
You shouldn't run into any conflicts when using this library and running on 4.5. The 4.5 version has the same name as the 4.0 version and the framework will unify to the inbox version.

Problem using Managed C++ (.Net 2.0) in .Net 2.0 project in VS2010. Referencing 4.0 .NET functionalities

I have exactly the same problem asked here.
Problem using Managed C++ (.Net 2.0) in .Net 2.0 project in VS2010.
Basically I have a C++/CLI project in .NET 2.0 and it indirectly references some 4.0 version dll via MFCMIFC80.DLL.
The only solution the person found was to delete MFCMIFC80.DLL.
How safe is that? Is there any other way to do this?
Solution:
The C++ project was using the v100 Platform toolset. This makes it depend on 4.0 .NET versions of some libraries.
Changing the toolset to v90 solves the problem.

Backwards compatability between .Net 2.0/3.5 and 4.0

I have an app that I've upgraded from 3.5 to 4.0. But not all my 3rd party assemblies are built on .net 4.0. How is it that I'm still able to reference those assemblies without any problems? For instance, if another assembly references system.dll 2.0, and my upgraded project references system.dll 4.0 how does .net handle this?
Obviosly this wasn't a problem upgrading between 2.0 and 3.5 because they use the same BCL and CLR versions, but 4.0 uses a completely different BCL and CLR right?
Here's an example. I have an app built using WF (Windows Workflow) in v3.5. I've upgraded the app to v4.0, but I wasn't required to implement all the breaking changes in the new version of workflow. It still using the old 3.5 version of WF.
.NET 4.0 can reference .NET 2.0 assemblies, but the reverse is not true.
.NET 4.0 assemblies support everything that 2.0 had, but adds in things like optional parameters, dynamic types, and etc...
So, since 2.0 doesn't have anything that 4.0 doesn't, 4.0 can easily support 2.0.
BCL and CLR are different but not completely different. Basically they worked hard to not break backwards compatibility.
You could also force your 3rd party assemblies to run under 3.5, as described in this post.
