Windows Server, version 2004 no longer supported by .NET Framework
Windows Server, version 2004 is no longer supported. As a result, this version of Windows is no longer supported by .NET and we will no longer produce .NET Framework container images for this Windows version.
Docker tags that contain windowsservercore-2004 are no longer being produced. We will not delete existing images or those tags. However, they contain unsupported builds of Windows Server and .NET Framework.
Pulling manifest tags
These changes also affect manifest tags (AKA “multi-arch tags“), such as 4.8. These are tags that are supported on multiple operating systems and versions, and do not contain the operating system in them. As a result of no longer producing new images for Windows Server, version 2004, manifest tags no longer include entries for Windows 10, version 2004, and Windows Server, version 2004. That means that .NET Core manifest tags are no longer usable on those Windows versions.
If you pull a manifest tag on one of the Windows versions described, you may get one of the following error messages:
a Windows version 10.0.XXXXX-based image is incompatible with a 10.0.19042 host
no matching manifest for windows/amd64 in the manifest list entries
no matching manifest for unknown in the manifest list entries
If you need to still use Windows Server, version 2004 images (even though they are no longer supported), you will need to use tags that include the Windows Server version (these are non-manifest tags), for example: 4.8-windowsservercore-2004.
