+WinSW `1.x` Executable is being built with a .NET Framework `2.0` target, and by defaut it will work only for .NET Framework versions below `3.5`.
+On the other hand, the code is known to be compatible with .NET Framework `4.0` and above.
+It is possible to declare the support of this framework via the `exe.config` file.
+See the [Installation Guide](doc/installation.md) for more details.

+WinSW `2.x` offers two executables, which declare .NET Frameworks `2.0` and `4.0` as targets.
+Naming and download sources for these binaries are currently in flux.
