Hello Guys
I got an issue when switching my Xamarin.Forms project from VSMac to VsWindows!
"java.exe" exited with code 2 when deploying.
I already try:
delete bin/ obj/ folders
remove all packages and re-add them
MultiDex
Verify the path (removing special char "!##$%ˆ&*(-_" etc..)
If you got an idea, tell me ;)
Regards,
If G Clovs solution doesn't work, then:
make sure the netstandard on your mac is exactly the same on your Windows pc.
Make sure you have the same Android SDK downloaded on your Windows - through Tools Menu > SDK manager.
If you are using stable channel for vs for mac updates, then make sure you are not suing the preview of budget packages on your Windows.
Apply the same logic in 3 for preview channel.
To avoid all these issues:
Simply go to vs for mac 2019, change to stable build and update the vs for mac to latest.
Update all android SDK and build tools to say v28
Update all nugget packages for the two projects and build successfully.
Go to vs 2019 and update vs to latest.
Repeat step 2 for vs.
Deselect preview in nugget package manager, and update nugget packages in the two projects.
Build successful.
Try the below steps, it was working for me.
Open Visual Studio in Windows
Open your Solution
Find for "Resource.designer.cs" file in Android Project and delete it
Remove obj and debug folders form PCL and Android project
Clean and Rebuild
Happy Coding :)

With turning third page of google, I didn't find any answer.
But I found the answer by my own.
The issue was comming from the Android.csproj and the Keystore Path.
It was set to my Mac Path even if I had already changed it on
VSWindows AndroidProject => Properties => Signin
So I removed this lines on Android.csproj (edited with third text editor):
<AndroidKeyStore>True</AndroidKeyStore>
<AndroidSigningKeyStore>YourMacPath/Alias.keystore</AndroidSigningKeyStore>
<AndroidSigningStorePass>Password</AndroidSigningStorePass>
<AndroidSigningKeyAlias>Alias</AndroidSigningKeyAlias>
<AndroidSigningKeyPass>AliasPassword</AndroidSigningKeyPass>
On debug & release Part.
Then you can edit them on VS Windows.
Hope I helped someone.
See ya
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" ],

I'm working in VB project with VS 2012 and after finish I try to add setup project.
I didn't find it (because the Setup Project was discontinued after VS2010) so I switched to VS2010 but the problem is the project wont open and I get this message:
The selected file is a solution file but was created by a newer
version of this application and cannot be opened.
I tried this article : http://www.codeproject.com/Tips/80953/Converting-VS2010-Solution-to-VS2008
and tried to convert from 2012 to 2010 but same message appears.
Open you solution file in notepad. Make 2 changes
Replace "Format Version 12.00" with "Format Version 11.00" (without quotes.)
Replace "# Visual Studio 2012" with "# Visual Studio 2010" (without quotes.)
Just to elaborate on Bhavin's excellent answer - editing the solution file works but you may still get the incompatible error (as David reported) if you had .NET 4.5 selected as the default .NET version in your VS2012 project and your VS2010 enviroment doesn't support that.
To quickly fix that, open the VS2012 .csproj file in a text editor and change the TargetFrameworkVersion down to 4.0 (from 4.5). VS2010 will then happily load the "edited" solution and projects.
You'll also have to edit an app.config files that have references to .NET 4.5 in a similar way to allow them to run on a .NET 4.0 environment.
I had a similar problem and none of the solutions above worked, so I went with an old standby that always works:
Rename the folder containing the project
Make a brand new project with the same name with 2010
Diff the two folders and->
Copy all source files directly
Ignore bin/debug/release etc
Diff the .csproj and copy over all lines that are relevant.
If the .sln file only has one project, ignore it. If it's complex, then diff it as well.
That almost always works if you've spent 10 minutes at it and can't get it.
Note that for similar problems with older versions (2008, 2005) you can usually get away with just changing the version in the .csproj and either changing the version in the .sln or discarding it, but this doesn't seem to work for 2013.
the simplest solution is.....open your website in vs2013 and go to Debug->WebsiteProperties (last option) a new window will open..
in this window go to "Build" option and change .net framework version from 4.5 to 4.0.....then select ok.
[note: this step will only work if your project does not have dependencies with vs2013...]
Now open your website in vs2010
Open the project file and not the solution. The project will be converted by the Wizard, and after converted, when you build the project, a new Solution will be generated as a VS2010 one.
Solution of VS2010 is supported by VS2012.
Solution of VS2012 isn't supported by VS2010
--> one-way upgrade only.
VS2012 doesn't support setup projects.
Find here more about VS2010/VS2012 compatibility: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh266747(v=vs.110).aspx
Simple solution which worked for me.
Install Vim editor for windows.
Open VS 2012 project solution using Vim editor and modify the version targetting Visual studio solution 10.
Open solution with Visual studio 2010.. and continue with your work ;)
