Microsoft recently released .NET 5.0. Note that Microsoft is changing their naming convention for .NET. Instead of calling this new major release .NET Core 4.0, they went with .NET 5.0 (or you may see it out there as ASP.NET Core 5.0).
Naming convention aside, we want to let you know that ASP.NET Core 5.0 is now available on Winhost’s Windows 2012 and Windows 2016 hosting platform. We support framework dependent deployment (FDD) for applications created with ASP.NET Core 5.0.
Note: If you cannot use framework-dependent deployment for any .NET Core version, remember that you can always publish using self-contained deployment (SCD). (For example, we show how to use self-contained deployment with Visual Studio 2017, in our knowledge base.) If any customers have questions about deployment, contact technical support.

Many of you are using Microsoft’s Office 365 services for your business or for your personal convenience.
We introduce a new O365Backup service to backup Office 365 – a comprehensive solution to backup Office 365 email, attachments, calendar, contacts, tasks, OneDrive, SharePoint, Groups and Teams.
Automatically Backup Office 365 Content Securely
You can easily set up automated backups for your Office 365 content. Your Office 365 data is secure during transit and your data is encrypted at rest.
Search and Restore Tools are Available
Tools are available in a separate O365Backup Control Panel to search your Office 365 archive and you can restore content from your backup archive.
A Cost-Effective Solution – Unlimited Storage + Unlimited Retention
O365Backup starts at $3.34 per month with unlimited storage and unlimited retention.
FREE 30 Day TRIAL
If you want to test the Office 365 backup service, no problem. We’ll give one user a 30-day FREE Trial so you can test it out and make sure the solution works for your needs.
Email is a vital form of communication and many customers have asked us about Email backups. So we are happy to introduce a new service, EmailBackup!
You Can Automatically Backup Any Email Box
You can easily set up automated backups for your email and attachments. You can backup your email from Winhost email servers or virtually any other email boxes you have elsewhere.
It’s Secure
The email backup storage is secure and encrypted and is also secure during transit.
You Can Easily Search and Restore
Tools are available to search your email archive and you can restore any email messages from your backup.
Manage Your Backups In a Separate Control Panel
The EmailBackup portal is a separate control panel from the Winhost Control Panel and lives outside of Winhost infrastructure. So in the event your Winhost Control Panel is down for any reason, you still have access to your Email backup storage.
A Very Cost-Effective Solution
EmailBackup starts at $1 per month. Peace of mind for less than a cup of coffee! And to sweeten the deal even more, we are offering EmailBackup for 30 days FREE so you can test it out without any risk.

We’ve been getting many inquiries about .NET Core 3.0 and we are happy to let you know that we now support framework dependent deployment of .NET Core 3 projects at Winhost.
Some new features include general performance improvements, support for C# 8, support for .NET Standard 2.1, improvements for .NET Core Version APIs, tiered compilation, and ReadyToRun images.
We do maintain a list of the .NET Core versions that are supported on our ASP.NET hosting platform in our knowledge base. But remember, if you do not see the .NET Core version that you want to use on the list, you can always upload your application using a self-contained deployment. If you have any questions about deployment, please contact our Technical Support team.
