'Update to .NET Core 6.0 in JetBrains Rider

A teammate recently updated our code base to use .NET Core 6.0 and I'm trying to build the project in JetBrains Rider.

I went to File > Preferences > Environment and clicked on the Update button for .NET.

I think I have the 6.0 SDK installed:

% dotnet --list-sdks
3.1.411 [/usr/local/share/dotnet/sdk]
3.1.412 [/usr/local/share/dotnet/sdk]
5.0.302 [/usr/local/share/dotnet/sdk]
5.0.400 [/usr/local/share/dotnet/sdk]
6.0.202 [/usr/local/share/dotnet/sdk]

There is a global.json file in the project root:

% cat global.json
{
  "sdk": {
    "version": "6.0.0",
    "rollForward": "latestMajor",
    "allowPrerelease": true
  }
}

However, when I do Build > Build Solution, I still get the following error:

Microsoft.NET.TargetFrameworkInference.targets(141, 5): [NETSDK1045] The current .NET SDK does not support targeting .NET 6.0. Either target .NET 5.0 or lower, or use a version of the .NET SDK that supports .NET 6.0.

What else do I need to do to build the project in Rider?

Thanks to LexLi pointing me in the right direction. The solution here is to select the correct version of MS Build. To do this, I went to

File > Preferences > Build, Execution, Deployment > Toolset and Build

Then for MSBuild version, I selected 17.0. Originally version 16.0 had been selected.
