At my work I do a lot with 3.5 still. We need to upgrade our version of devexpress. More recent projects use MVC with .Net 4.0 or 4.5 (but our IT guy is nervous about installing such new runtimes on the servers that don't have 4.5 already..)

We use VS2012

You can easily use c# 6 with .NET 3.5. I know because we do!

You just need to upgrade VS to 2015. Language version has nothing to do with framework version!

Feel your pain. My work laptop has VS2012 on it.

Last year we were still targeting XP.
