I would say no. Looking at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd831853%28v=vs.110%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396[^], it looks like 4.5 was the latest.

The easiest way to know is to just try it.

No, you'll need Visual Studio 2015. Depending on the size of your company, you might be able to use the free Community version[^].

If you want the latest version of .NET, 4.6.2[^] was released earlier this week.
