I had Visual Studio 2015 Community on my Windows 10 laptop. I removed that so that I could have enough space on my laptop for Visual Studio 2017 and the Windows Universal Samples. The project (specifically BluetoothLEClient) builds, but when I run it I get an unhandled exception and . I found this thread, but I see the .appx files in their folders. Any ideas?

I recently got a Win 11 machine and installed Visual Studio 2022, then I installed Visual Studio 2019 to support an old app. In the search feature on the Win task bar, when I enter visual studio it shows them listed like this:
Visual Studio 2022
Visual Studio 2019 (2)
It has this for "Blend" too.
Is this just from picking the same feature set(s) during the install? For example, SQL Data Tools. And/Or could it mean something isn't right with my env?
VS 2019 is in
Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe
VS 2022 is in Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\Common7\IDE\denvenv.exe
I'm having an issue with an old site in 2019, but I don't believe it's related. I am just curious why that (2) is there and what if any problems it could cause.
Thanks
I have installed the Enterprise version of Visual Studio 2017 v 15.8.4 on Windows 7 Professional. I have downloaded the UWP Samples, when I attempt to load any of the C++ UWP sample solutions such as the Altimeter solution I get the error ..."This project is incompatible with the current version of Visual Studio." Online I found the suggestion that with a prior version of VS reloading the project worked, but in my case the project is greyed out. What is the problem?
From Visual Studio 2017 Product Family System Requirements:
Universal Windows app development, including designing, editing, and debugging, requires Windows 10. Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server 2012 R2 may be used to build Universal Windows apps from the command line.
You need Windows 10 to open UWP samples in Visual Studio 2017.
i have recently installed visual studio 2013 ultimate on my 64 bit windows 8.1 x64 based system
whenever i open visual studio 2013 it shows an error box saying "Microsoft visual studio 2013 is not responding."
<p>how can i fix this problem</p>
It may have 2 reasons :
your Windows is not compatible with that version of VS2013
your CPU or RAM is lesser than VS needs
I was developing a solution for Windows Phone 7 on my system using Visual Studio 2012. I installed Visual Studio 2013 and opened the solution with it. I found that Visual Studio 2013 won't let me build a Windows Phone 7 application, so I wanted to re-open the solution in Visual Studio 2012.
Now Visual Studio 2012 shows me the following error message:
This project is incompatible with the current edition of Visual Studio
What do I need to do to 'undo' the changes made to my project in the upgrade process so that I can continue working in the older version of Visual Studio to finish my project?
Visual Studio 2013 upgrades the project to the Windows Phone 8 SDK, and that is not compatible with Visual Studio 2012. If you are using a form of Source Control (Visual Studio Online, GitHub) you should roll back to the previous version. If not, Visual Studio (by default) creates a _backup folder under your solution where it will backup any files modified in the conversion process. Use these to return the project to its pre-visualstudio-2013-state.
I have Windows 8 machine.
I had visual studio 2010 and Visual Studio 2012 installed on my computer.
I installed the visual studio 2013 preview, and the 8.1 WDK.
After I installed Visual Studio 2013, my old project in C++ wasn't able to be compiled (in Visual Studio 2012) so I uninstalled Visual Studio 2013 and the WDK.
But the issue remains, i cannot compile my C++ project. I get error message such as "Windows.h cannot be found" I looked at the include directory and saw that I have the following include: $(WindowsSDK_IncludePath). but when I open "Macros>>" I can't this macro "$(WindowsSDK_IncludePath)".
I tried to uninstall Visual Studio 2010 and 2012 and reinstall them but it didn't fix the issue.
Does anyone know what might cause this issue and how to resolve it?
In order to build windows 8 apps in visual studio 2013, you must be using windows 8.1. (defined here). This is possibly the issue.
You also wouldn't see the windows sdk include path because the wdk would be uninstalled. I would recommend one of two things
get visual studio 2012 again, and download the windows 8 sdk
get windows 8.1, then install visual studio 2013, and use the windows 8.1 sdk
I know, its quite silly.
