I want to migrate a Visual Studio 2010 Solution so that I can work with Visual Studio 2013.
If I understand it right, due to the round-tripping feature of Visual Studio 2013,
there is no reason to convert the solution!? I can just open my old solution with
Visual Studio 2013 and can just work with it.
Is that right? Or is there a good reason or need to do a conversion to a
Visual Studio 2013 solution.
Or better: Is there any good reason to not stick with the old Visual Studio 2010 solution?
Visual Studio 2013 can open a sln file created by Visual Studio 2010. However, Visual Studio 2010 can not open a sln file created by Visual Studio 2013.
The easiest way to see this is to open the sln file in a text editor and look at the first 2 lines:
Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 12.00
# Visual Studio 2012
Visual Studio has a version setting in the header (this example is from VS 2012). An older version of the tool wont open the file.
Beyond that there aren't really any big differences in the file. There are certain project types (ie Project("{guid}") that aren't supported in older version of Visual Studio. For example a Visual Studio 2013 SDK project can only be opened with Visual Studio 2013.
To wrap up, if you have an existing Visual Studio 2010 sln file, there isn't really any need to change it. If you plan on opening it again in VS2010 then make sure you don't change it. Otherwise I wouldn't worry about it and just let VS do whatever makes VS happy.
I have a project in Microsoft Visual Studios 2013 and I want to open it in Microsoft Visual Studios 2010. Is there any easy way? or Do I have to create a new project in 2010 and add all files from 2013 project?
Open you solution file in notepad. Make 1 change, as stated in Converting VS2012 Solution to VS2010:
Replace "# Visual Studio 2013" with "# Visual Studio 2010" (without
quotes.)

How to downgrade from Visual Studio 2012 project to Visual Studio 2008
I had some issues that were resolved by a combination of things. In my case I was converting a VB 2013 project to 2010. I solved it by:
Open the solution file in notepad (.sln)
Change these lines:
Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 12.00
Visual Studio 2013
To:
Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 10.00
Visual Studio 2010
I also had to update the references. I had the issue that it give an error every time I went to view designer. In my case it was:
Microsoft Excel 15.0 Object Library -> Microsoft Excel 14.0 Object Library
Microsoft Office 15.0 Object Library -> Microsoft Office 14.0 Object Library
Reassign the Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications Extensibility 5.3
open the solution file with notepad and editing like
Format Version 12.00===> Format Version 11.00
Visual Studio 2013===> # Visual Studio 2010
is also working
I changed ToolsVersion="12.0" to ToolsVersion="4.0" in my .csproj file and .csproj.user file, I hope it helps someone out there.

This worked for me: open the solution(.sln) file with Notepad and change right values to left values in this way :
Format Version 12.00 to Format Version 11.00
Visual Studio 2013 to # Visual Studio 2010
and then open visual C# project file with notepad and change right value to left value in this way :
ToolsVersion="12.0" to ToolsVersion="4.0"
For 2015 to 2010 Premium use these lines in the .sln file.
Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 11.0
# Visual Studio 11
VisualStudioVersion = 10.0.40219.1
MinimumVisualStudioVersion = 10.0.40219.1
Had to change to these 2 lines. Changed from 12 to 11. And changed from 4.5 on the framework to 4.0 on the project file .csproj
<Project ToolsVersion="11.0" DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003">
<TargetFrameworkVersion>v4.0</TargetFrameworkVersion>
Will Programs in Visual Studio Premium Open in Visual Studio Express?
There are some project types that are not supported by Visual Studio Express. For example if you created a solution containing a unit test project in Visual Studio Ultimate you will not be able to open it in Visual Studio Express. Also make sure you check the Visual Studio Editions features comparison matrix.
How do I open a .dgml file using Visual Studio 2010 Professional so that I see the DGML graph visually? I have read here that VS 2010 supports DGML viewing, but whenever I drag my file into Visual Studio I am presented only with the XML editor.
Correct, DGML is available only for Premium and Ultimate.
From all that I've read (e.g. there, or there), I suspect that DGML is not available at all in the Professional edition of Visual Studio 2010.
You'd most likely need Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate. It seems DGML is one part of Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate's "Architecture" features.
It also seems as if DGML was available in a Beta version of Visual Studio 2010. (IIRC, the Beta version was an Ultimate edition.)
Why fa-IR.resx is unknown at the Visual studio 2010
You should not use fa-IR.resx. You should use fa.resx.
for default resource with file name 'default.resx' use 'default.fa.resx'
