ABP version update using NuGet package manager - asp.net-mvc-5

Question

I have been tasked with creating a screen on an existing website that uses ASP.NET Boilerplate, to track the changes of entities and who made the changes.
When I go into NuGet package manager to update ABP version, which was at version 0.9.5, I can only get the version to update up to ABP version 2.3.0.
But that version does not have what I am looking for, which is the ability to enable Entity History in PreInitialize():
Configuration.EntityHistory.IsEnabled = false;
I would like to update to the latest version of ABP, which is version 3.5.0.
But when I update, I get error:
Could not install package 'Abp 3.5.0'. You are trying to install this package into a project that targets '.NETFramework,Version=v4.6.2', but the package does not contain any assembly references or content files that are compatible with that framework. For more information, contact the package author.
I have installed all dependencies needed for latest version of ABP:
.NETStandard 2.0
Castle.Core (>= 4.2.1)
Castle.LoggingFacility (>= 4.1.0)
JetBrains.Annotations (>= 11.1.0)
Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.Memory (>= 2.0.0)
Microsoft.Extensions.Options (>= 2.0.0)
Newtonsoft.Json (>= 11.0.1)
.AsyncEx.Context (>= 1.1.0)
Nito.AsyncEx.Coordination (>= 1.0.2)
System.Collections.Immutable (>= 1.4.0)
System.ComponentModel.Annotations (>= 4.4.1)
System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager (>= 4.4.1)
System.Data.Common (>= 4.3.0)
System.Linq.Dynamic.Core (>= 1.0.8.2)
System.Linq.Queryable (>= 4.3.0)
System.Runtime.Serialization.Formatters (>= 4.3.0)
System.Security.Claims (>= 4.3.0)
System.Threading (>= 4.3.0)
System.Xml.XPath.XmlDocument (>= 4.3.0)
TimeZoneConverter (>= 2.3.0)
Is there something I am missing or doing wrong?

Answer 1

You can't just upgrade 3 major versions from v0.x to v3.x as there are several breaking changes.
Upgrading from ABP v0.9.5 means you're probably upgrading from v1.5.2 of the MVC5 template.
It's already non-trivial to upgrade from v2.x to v3.x.
You're better off downloading the new template: https://aspnetboilerplate.com/Template
More importantly, you will need to port changes as there is no EF6 support for Entity History yet.
However, the bulk of the Entity History feature is in the main Abp package. You can check #2835.
