I am trying to open my solution in Visual Studio 2010. I have 8 projects and four of them will not open due to the following error.
".scproj cannot be opened because its project type (.scproj) is not
supported by this version of the application"
Is this a setting in Visual studio or some configuration? Note: this is a Sitecore 6.4 Website if that changes anything.
Scproj files are used by TDS -Team Development for Sitecore
https://www.hhogdev.com/Downloads/Team-Development-for-Sitecore.aspx
If it is a TDS project file then you'll need to install TDS to load the project files.

I think I was using visual studio 2017 and wrote a SSIS package. Now I installed visual studio 2019 and can't open the solution file. Error:
Unsupported This version of Visual Studio is unable to open the
following projects. The project types may not be installed or this
version of Visual Studio may not support them. For more information
on enabling these project types or otherwise migrating your assets,
please see the details in the "Migration Report" displayed after
clicking OK.
- ABC, "C:\Users\XYZ\ABC.dtproj"
Non-functional changes required Visual Studio will automatically make
non-functional changes to the following projects in order to enable
them to open in Visual Studio 2015, Visual Studio 2013, Visual Studio
2012, and Visual Studio 2010 SP1. Project behavior will not be
impacted.
- ABC_SSIS, "C:\Users\XYZ\ABC_SSIS.sln"
I tried "Right-click on the project and reload" - didn't work.
I tried to confirm SSDT is installed:
it is installed at the installation interface, but doesn't exist in extension manager:
SSIS is a seperate extension now in Visual Studio 2019. You can install that extension in Visual Studio market place. Choose Online tab and search for "SQL Server Integration Services Projects".Hope it can help your problem
1.Extensions -> Microsoft Reporting Service Project
2.and then close visual studio
3.VSIX installer will complete automatically
4.If your project unloaded, right click on project and reload
Today I faced this issue,
Cause
The reason for issue is,
I saw a yellow bg notification at the top of IDE showing performance issue , with option to "disable this" to improve the performance.
I chose disable, later next day when I opened the project, It showed the project is not compatible.
I did Repair SSIS, Uninstall and Reinstall SSIS, and also updated the SSIS to latest version. None of these 3 ways resolved the issue.
Solution
But, I found Manage Extension submenu item under Extension menu, Under installed tab, SSIS extension was in disabled status. I reverted to Enabled status. Sample screenshot of the same for reference is here. If it disabled, simply enable it. Then restart VS with SSIS project.
Enabling the SSIS in manage extensions solved this for me.
Extensions ... Manage Extensions
Online ... Visual Studio Marketplace
SQL Server Integration Services Projects
Download
Close Visual Studio and then run the download
When finished, open your existing SSIS project and right-click the project and select "Reload" or "Reload with dependancies"
You can also now start a new Integration Services project.
Goal:
I try to open a visual studio project (c#) with CLR code for SQL Server from the Pluralsight course.
Issue:
I get no error messages just warnings below after One-way upgrade on Visual Studio 2017.
Your project is targeting .NET Framework 2.0 or 3.0. If your project
uses assemblies requiring a newer .NET Framework, your project will
fail to build. You can change the .NET Framework version by clicking
Properties on the project menu and then selecting a new version in the
'.NET Framework' dropdown box. (In Visual Basic, this is located on
the Compile tab by clicking the 'Advanced Compiler Options...'
button.)
When I open a solution with single project inside I get message below
The Project Needs to be migrated
or
The Project Needs to be loaded
Tried:
I tried editing csproj files with newer/older version numbers.
I tried different PCs with Visual Studio 2017 and Visual Studio 2015
Idea: Install Visual Studio 2010 as course was released in 2010 BUT I really do not want that.
When I got this issue, I tried reloading the project and when I did, it told me that I did not have an SDK installed and then it offered to install the SDK. Once I had the SDK installed, the project loaded and I was able to work with the project.
I just created CordovaApp (Multi-Device Hybrid App) in VS 2013. The application was working fine. Then I tried to open app with VS 2015 Community edition in another machine (and on same machine) and I am receiving following error:
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error The specified directory to the Visual Studio extension
D:\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\MICROSOFT VISUAL STUDIO
14.0\COMMON7\IDE\EXTENSIONS\APACHECORDOVATOOLS\node.exe either does not exist, or does not contain a packages\vs-mda sub-directory. Please
check that the extension directory exists and set the MDAVsixDir
variable to the correct
directory. MyAppCordovaApp C:\Users\foouser\AppData\Roaming\npm\node_modules\vs-mda-targets\Microsoft.MDA.targets 105
I also installed Cordova Tools for VS update 6.
Is there any known work-around for this issue?
I am facing the same issue. Cordova project created in VS2013 is not going to run/debug at VS2015.
NodeJS module used for building the project is no longer called vs-mda (i.e. Visual Studio Multi-Device Application) but vs-tac (i.e. Visual Studio Tools for Apache Cordova).
After perform manual migration, it is working now.

I installed Vs 2010 Express in my PC, and created a poject named myproject with .net 4.0, it works well in Vs 2010 Express.
Now I installed Vs 2012 Express in my PC, and open the project myproject and upgrade it to .net 4.5, it wells well in Vs 2012 Express too.
I delete the project myproject all files, then restore it from my old backup file, when I try to open the project from Vs 2010 Express, I get the following information.
"This project is incompatible with the current version of visual studio", why?
How can I open the project in Vs 2010 Express? I guess the Vs 2012 Express maybe mark the project as .net 4.5 and stored the information in the somewhere of hard drive. Although I restore the project myproject from old backup file, Vs 2010 Express still think it is a project of .net 4.5.
Thanks!
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 with Visual Studio 2010, 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.
I know this is a little old, but just in case the above solutions don't work: don't be an idiot like me and try to open an MVC project using "VS for Desktop" instead of "VS for Web" (or vice-versa), since it will give you the incompatible message.
I use TFS at my job and I tried to open a MVC project via the TFS Solution Explorer. I wasn't paying attention to which Visual Studio version I had open and since both IDE's look alike, I was confused at what was going on - a common mistake, I'm sure =P
If you are getting the same error for a project which is actually an extension (.vsix), please install Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 SDK
Installing KB2781514 - Update for Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 solved the problem for me.
Check the directory that contains the solution file for an UpgradeLog.htm file. It will probably show what's wrong. In my case I tried to open an ASP.NET project, but the Web Developer Tools were not installed.
The Web Developer Tools can be installed afterwards by going to the Control Panel and to modify your existing Visual Studio installation. After adding Web Developer Tools the project opened without issues.
In my case the problem was the Component Model Cache (Visual Studio for C++).
in VS2013 it is located in
%localappdata%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\12.0\ComponentModelCache
in VS2015 in
%localappdata%\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\ComponentModelCache
Rename this folder and restart visual studio.
I received this error because during the BizTalk install I did not check the Developer Tools and SDK checkbox. I went back and modified my installation and that error went away for me now.
Trying to load a BizTalk Project in VS2012 without BizTalk installed on your developer machine, will result in this error and the projects will load. This should be the first thing you check.
Make sure that all your extensions are same as in previous version. For me, when I upgraded from old PC to New PC, I didn't downloaded correct extensions hence resulting in above issue.
I faced out with this problem, the solution was:
Open VS2017
Go to Tools
Go to Extensions and updates
Search for Reporting Services Project and then "Enable"; close your VS.
Open again your project/solution.

I have a big solution file and few projects can not be loaded. I do have all the files in the proper directories. But when I right click and try to load the project, I get the following error:
The project file "C:\myapp.proj" can not be opened. The project type is not supported by this installation.
By the way, these projects are related to Windows Workflow.
Please help.
I am using Visual Studio 2005 on Win7 machine.
It might be a modeling project, test project, silverlight/wpf project etc. It's definetely something that's not supported by your version of Visual Studio, you should use a newer version or a different one (i.e. professional instead of express).
Update: I did not see that it was Windows Workflow Foundation. Check out this link, it's a toolkit for using Workflows in VS2005.
