You can go to the Properties of your project, and change the Target Framework to a lower one that runs on Windows XP. Note that if you use .NET 4.5-specific features, you'll have to replace them in the code.

You always have to make sure that your app uses a .NET version that can run on all Windows versions you want to support.

sqlite need .net 4+ !
so How I can use sqlite in any version of windows ?

I have never used SQLite, but I would be surprised if it could not run on .NET 3.5. If it gives that error, try to find a SQLite library that runs on a lower version.
