On Apple Silicon machines (also known as M1 or ARM), Visual Studio for Mac 8.10 does not currently support the .NET 6, .NET 5 and .NET Core 3.1 x64 SDKs released in November. It also does not support the .NET 6 Arm64 SDK. If any of these are installed, then they will break Visual Studio for Mac 8.10, and should be uninstalled, and the older .NET SDKs installed.

.NET 6 is not fully supported by Visual Studio for Mac 8.10 since C# 10 is not supported in the editor. For this reason the New Project dialog will not show .NET 6.0 as an option when creating new projects.
