I have a new computer. (No relevant software on it at this point.)
I installed Visual Studio 2019 (Community)
I copied a .sln with all its projects (they're C++ with MFC) from my old computer, on which it was built with VS 2013
I tried to build it.
Error message: it needs the VS 2013 toolset. OK not unexpected.
I find the VS 2013 toolset on the internet, download and install it.
Still getting the same error message when trying to build.

Can anyone tell me what else I have to do?

[I have succeeded on my old computer compiling VS2013 projects with VS2019, but that computer had VS2013 installed on it before I installed VS2019. I was hoping I wouldn't have to install the whole of VS2013 on the new one!]
