I installed Visual Studio 2022 on Mac M1 and was trying to write a MAUI app. But when I create a template project and try to build it, I keep getting the below errors:
I tried a lot of things including reinstalling Visual Studio and dotnet frameworks, nothing worked!
Any clues as to what should be done here?
You could try installing the maui-android and maui-ios workloads manually. You could refer to dotnet workload install commands.
In addition, you could check the csproj file to see if there is the TargetFrameworks element :
<TargetFrameworks>net6.0-android;net6.0-ios;net6.0-maccatalyst</TargetFrameworks>
For more info, you could refer to Build your first app.
Hope it works for you.

Whenever I try to build and run my mobile project the error
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\MSBuild\Xamarin\Android\Xamarin.Android.Common.targets(1166,2):
error MSB4057: The target "_AndroidXJetifyEmbeddedFiles" does not
exist in the project.
Even when I create a new xamarin project and run it with the default code, I get the same error. Visual Studios is up to date so I am not sure what the problem could be.
I solved this issue by posting on Xamarin-Android's GitHub issue tracker See here...
You should try to delete %userprofile%\.nuget\packages\xamarin.androidx.migration and to compile you app again. It worked fine for me.
You can try the following methods:
1.update your nuget to the latest version and then delete bin and obj folders and try again;
2.Check if you have set up the Android SDK for Xamarin.Android correctly.
Check document: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/xamarin/android/get-started/installation/android-sdk?tabs=windows
3.If the problem persists,try to repair your visual studio;
For more details, please check:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/install/repair-visual-studio?view=vs-2019;
4.If the problem persists，you can try to perform a thorough uninstall for Xamarin for Visual Studio, and install the latest Visual Studio;
Today when i update a old project to Xamarin.Form5, i get this bug. I try to update all nuget, but still show this bug, when i see Warning, i see have a nuget downgrade because two nuget reference conflict. I delete one nuget that i not use, Build success.
When I try to create a new Windows Forms project, I get the " ....csproj cannot be opened because its project type (.csproj) is not supported by this version of the application" error. The .csproj file it is referring to is in AppData\Local\temp\randomname\Applicationname.csproj but that file does not actually get created.
I know that when this error crops up with opening projects created in previous versions, it's usually a missing library that is used by that particular project but for the life of me, I cannot figure out what library I could be missing here as it is a new project.
I have VS 2013 Ultimate installed with all components.
Running on Windows 8.1.
First confirm it is not a add-on or a problem with Visual Studio itself.
Try and start Visual Studio from the command line with devenv.exe /resetskippkgs and also try disable any IDE extensions temporarily to see if one of them might be stepping on something. Do these two things first to see if the problem lies with VS IDE. Of course try creating a project after you have done these two things and see if you get the same results.
I never figured out what the actual problem was but I've installed Update 5 which was only released less than two weeks ago and it's working fine now.
I just repaired/reinstalled my Windows 8.1 PC, and then I install VS 2013 Express.
But every-time I build my projects (all of my projects), it threw me this error :
Error 1 Error : DEP1700 : The recipe file "xxxxx.appxrecipe" does not
exist. You may need to build your project.
I've tried these step:
Repairing my VS 2013 Express
Uninstalling VS 2013 Express-Restarting PC-Installing VS 2013 Express
Freshly check-out my projects and build it from beginning.
But none of those are works for me.
Anyone can help me?
Because before reinstalling my PC everything works fine.
I had this same issue with a Xamarin Forms application when I attempted to run the UWP instance on my local machine. After a bit of digging it turns out that in Configuration Manager (Right click solution file -> Configuration Manager) BUILD was unticked while DEPLOY was ticked. Never going to work as the project can't deploy if it hasn't built!
On Visual studio 2017, simply restarting Visual studio solves the problem (No need to clean or delete obj/bin folders).
Well,
I decided to install VS 2013 Update 4, and it somehow fixed my problem...not sure what was happen.
For a packaged WinUI project, you should also check if Package.appxmanifest exists
I was getting the below message from Visual Studio 2010.
"This project is incompatible with the current version of Visual Studio"
One situation resulting in this error has already been posted here at Stackoverflow, but that question has been closed. I'm thinking it's a fairly generic problem. Since I have found a "solution", I'll post this question, and my solution as an answer.
If the message
This project is incompatible with the current version of Visual Studio
is due to an attempt to open a project targeting .Net 4.5, then the "solution" or workaround is to edit the .csproj file and change the TargetFrameworkVersion from "v4.5" to "v4.0". That at least allows the project to be loaded, although it may result in compiler errors if the program is dependent on 4.5 features.
VS 2012 has different project type support based on what you install at setup time and which edition you have. Certain options are available, e.g. web development tools, database development tools, etc. So if you're trying to open a web project but the web development tools weren't installed, it complains with this message.
This can happen if you create the project on another machine and try to open it on a new one. I figured it out trying to open an MVC project after I accidentally uninstalled the web tools.
I just got the same error message with a couple projects after installing Visual Studio 2015 Update 3. For me, the solution was to install .NET Core
In my case it was an incompatible Project Type. Editing project file and removing ProjectTypeGuids node resolved the issue of loading the project (I had already re-targeted the framework version as advised here).
Probably the project type is not supported in the (most likely) NEW version of VS, so you will have to adjust (update) the code to work properly (if possible), but at least you can see the content through VS.
I Resolved the issue by deleting the files in the below folder
%localappdata%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\ComponentModelCache
Source: https://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/70388/how-to-fix-incompatible-issue-after-visual-studio-2015-update-3
As for me, I realized there was another web project in the solution that my VS2017 was loading fine, so I copied over the ProjectTypeGuids element of it over to the project that wasn't loading. Its diff was:
- <ProjectTypeGuids>{E3E379DF-F4C6-4180-9B81-6769533ABE47};{349c5851-65df-11da-9384-00065b846f21};{fae04ec0-301f-11d3-bf4b-00c04f79efbc}</ProjectTypeGuids>
+ <ProjectTypeGuids>{349c5851-65df-11da-9384-00065b846f21};{fae04ec0-301f-11d3-bf4b-00c04f79efbc}</ProjectTypeGuids>
After this, it loads. Don't ask me why.
If you are getting the same error for a project which is actually an extension (.vsix), installing Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 SDK does the trick.
Go to tools -> Extensions and updates -> Online -> Search for project installer -> download
And relaunch Visual studio.
After installing Update 3 for Visual Studio 2015, I suddenly got the "This project is incompatible with the current version of Visual Studio" error message while opening my Cordova project (.jsproj Javascript project file)
To solve this:
Go to Programs & Features
Select the Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 installation and click Change
Click Modify
Install "HTML/Javascript (Apache Cordova) Update 10" of the Cross Platform Mobile Development section
For me, I got this same error in VS 2015 and just installed the VS 2015 update 1, though from another answer, VS is actually up to Update 3, now (after which, they got the error and had to install .NET Core). Had issues when it hit certain packages, like the Windows SDK ones, and had to point the installer back at the paths in my original CD, and for some, even that didn't work and had to skip them and re-download from an internet-connected computer, transfer them over, and run them later manually (computer was not connected to the internet to be able to download updated versions of the packages), but after doing all that and doing a reboot, the error was gone and my project loaded fine.
I had this issue and after hours of uninstalling and reinstalling I found out the issue in my instance.
The reason why I got this was down to the fact that I didn't have the correct extension.
In my case the ASP.net project (my startup) was the incompatible project and this was because I didn't have the following:
Microsoft ASP.NET and Web Tools
Micrsoft ASP.NET Web Frameworks and Tools
It was a simple case of going into extensions and updates under the Tools menu
I had this error and found it was due to the presence an 'Import' XML tag inside the .csproj.user file. Once I removed it, Visual Studio could open the project again.
What most people forget it is that the files of visual studio are just text files, that have some peculiars configurations that will show to the program how to open it. that is, we can change this because it's just a text in some file in there in your project folders.
Well, knowing this, what we have to do is very simple!
The first step is knowing what kind of project it is this project that stay unload. (for example: Class Library)
The Second step is create a new one (Class Library) because you know that your visual studio will create a version supported by himself. Unload this one and click in "Edit csproj".
It's in this file that we can found the configuration that tell to VS how this proj will be loaded and his name is ProjectGuid, this serial number has a variation according the type and version of project.
Now, look at your "ok project", copy the "ProjectGuid" TAG, paste on csproj that unloaded, and pay attention to the little differences and make this files almost equals, except for the tags ItemGroup that represent the references of the project.
Doing that, save all files and close your VS and open again, now your project should load normally.
I hope that this informations help somebody to understand a bit more how the VS works and help solve the problems when necessary.
I checked if i could create a new solution and was unable because SSAS,SSIS and SSRS weren't there as options.
I downloaded SSDT from here and installed and it worked...
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/ssdt/download-sql-server-data-tools-ssdt?view=sql-server-2017
In case you came here looking for the issue with ".smproj" file, it is because you are missing SQL Server Analysis Services(SSAS). To over come this, install SQL Server Data Tools(SSDT) in your system, restart your Visual Studio and it will work.
Thanks.
This is my answer, I think it's useful. Please follow below steps:
1.First check your Visual studio version is 2012, 2015 or 2017 etc.
2.Your project is developed in 2015, but your visual studio 2012, then visual studio 2012 should not open the which are developed in visual studio 2015 projects.
3.If developed project visual studio 2012 and you have visual studio 2012, open the project but here need to check one option as per below
a) Target Framework - Open your project ".csproj" file with notepad++ and search with "TargetFrameworkVersion" and observe target framework value.
b) Open any existing project in your visual studio - Select project at 'Solution Explorer' - Right click - Properties - Application -Select Target Framework - Observe highest your framework which you have
c) 3.a and 3.b frameworks both are should same otherwise applications are not open
d)If your target framework less than the project framework should install the latest's
e) above options do not work just Simply have another option modify the "TargetFrameworkVersion" value in '.csproj' file which is have in your visual studio.
Ex: in my visual studio target framework 4.0 but in '.csproj' file have TargetFrameworkVersion - 4.5, You need just change 4.5 to 4.0 and open the project
This issue might be caused when using VS 2015 with Update 3 installed on one PC and without update 3 installed on another. This was the problem in my case.
How do I start writing TypeScript projects in Visual Studio? There's no option for it when I create a new project. I have Visual Studio 2012 installed along with the TypeScript add on
I just found the solution: Manual installation of the VS-Extension.
In some way, the VS-Extension is not getting installed. You can do it manually. There is a .vsix file located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\TypeScript\0.8.0.0 called TypeScriptLanguageService.vsix.
Try to run this file. It should install the TypeScript extension.
If you are running an x86-based system, try to look at C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\TypeScript\0.8.0.0.
Worked for me. Now I can create TypeScript projects and it is listed in the Visual Studio extension list.
Note that the newer versions of TypeScript dropped the folder 0.8.0.0. You may find the .vsix file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\TypeScript.
You can add TypeScript files to an existing project using the Add > New Item dialog.
You can also create a project of type HTML Application with TypeScript using the Add > New Project dialog. This project type is under Installed->(Templates)->Visual C#.
If these options are missing from Visual Studio, you should try re-installing the TypeScript Visual Studio plugin.
If you use Visual Studio 2017, the template 'HTML Application with TypeScript' has been removed from the templates.
But you can install the extension made by rich-newman on Github: https://github.com/rich-newman/typescript-html-application-vs2017-template
To install it do the following:
Go to the 'Add New Project' window
At the left go to 'online' in the left tree view
Search for 'TypeScript HTML Application Template'
Install the extension and the template should be available under 'installed --> TypeScript'
Followed the other answers but could not locate TypeScriptLanguageService.vsix after installing TypeScriptSetup.0.8.0.msi on Win7 64 w/ VS 2010.
To install on VS 2010, use 7zip to open the above msi and extract "TypeScriptLS.vsix_File", remove the trailing _File, and run as usual.
This gives a new TypeScript project template (but not a file template mysteriously), intellisense, code highlighting, etc.
I didn't have the project and ts file templates also, tried reinstalling it(just by running vsix file) that didn't help, so I
1. uninstalled(from the VS2012 manager) the extension
2. closed VS2012 and then installed it again and voila-
the Project and file template magically appeared. Thank god it worked- I can start playing with the language without having to run transcompilation manually every time.
Installing typescript adds a new project type as well as adds a file type for existing projects. After installing typescript, you can try searching "typescript" in the new project window. It shows "HTML Application with TypeScript" to me.
Every .ts file typescript file will add a dependent .js file.
Hope this helps!
Old post, new suggestion:
I've spent a few hours on this issue on Win8/VS2012. After multiple install/reinstall (of Typescript plugin v 0.8.3), the one thing that worked, was to run VS2012 in Administrator mode and (re)install Web Essentials 2012. That did the trick for me and I got Typescript as it's own section in Add New Project... (and all the other goodies mentioned above).
What reminded me of the run in admin mode was the process to update documentation (if you want to install documentation locally) where it too had an annoying cryptic error. Running in admin mode was also the answer.
You don't have to run in admin mode all the time, just probably a good practice when updating the IDE itself (new plugins, etc.).
For version 0.9.1.1 I was able to make it work following the instructions here: http://typescript.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Compile-on-Save.
Support for Typescript was just disabled on Web Essentials 2012 3.0: http://vswebessentials.com/changelog
Another tip - you need to install Visual Studio for Web. It will not work with just VS for Desktop. Also, you need to install the plugin after VS, so if you installed the plugin first, uninstall it then reinstall.
I spent days on this issue too. Eventually found this (very old) answer. Didn't quite help. I have VS 2022 and under Extensions/ Manage Extensions, searched for Typescript and found 'Typescript HTML Application Template'. Downloaded it, created project from it, set the start page and it all seems to work :-)
It was also a simple matter to add a tsconfig.json file. (Not forgetting to put a "dom" in the "lib" line: Mine was
"lib": [ "es6", "dom" ],
