I have a solution in C# in Visual Studios. It was first created in .NET Framework. I want to convert the project to .NET Standard/Core. If I go into project --> properties I see the attached screen, where Target Framework is .NET Framework. How am I able to change that to .NET Standard/Core?
As Roman Ryzhiy mentions in the comments, this is the way to go:

This worked fine for me, I upgraded a .NET Framework 4.7.2 projekt. It was a small project, so I had few aftermath-problems. After the upgrade, the Target Framework in the Application tab will say ".NET 5.0".
Install upgrade-assistant:
dotnet tool install -g upgrade-assistant
Go to your solution folder
Run the assistant:
upgrade-assistant upgrade your-project-name.csproj
Follow the steps in the assistant, it's really straight-forward.
Also, here are the steps more detailed:
