Hi,

Not sure which forum I need to use for this issue. Currently we are using visual studio 2012 professional edition. On our workstations, we installed Visual Studio Enterprise 2017 version. We got latest version of our project and solution from source safe. When I open solution and project in 2017, it opens without any issues and compiled and ran the project loacally. Everything works fine.

But when I look into solution properties, I see

Microsoft Visual Studio Solution File, Format Version 12.00
# Visual Studio 2012

That means file is not yet upgraded to 2017.

When I searched forums, they said when I open solution in visual studio 2017, conversion wizard pops up asking to convert. but i didn't get any.

Project file:

<Project DefaultTargets="Build" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003" ToolsVersion="4.0">

What should I do. How to upgrade the project and solution.

Thanks,
