(I am using Visual Studio 2022 Community Edition) I was facing the same problem. the solution to this was modifying the packages in Visual Studio - and adding - ASP.NET Web Application (.NET Framework) package.

Please follow the steps below:

Go to File New project Scroll down, at last, you'll see - Not finding what are you looking for go to Install More tools and Features

it will open Visual Studio Installer

go to Modify Go to INdividual packages Tab Search For: " .NET Framework project and item templates " and mark the checkbox. Install the packages

Installing .NET Framework project and item templates ask for 1.6GB of space requirement, which might be the reason for not being included by default in the first place during the Visual Studio 2022 installation.

It should solve your problem Regards
