I am trying to open a code which was built by a different guy. I am not sure which version of VS it was built in or any other details. When I try to open the solution I always get Project unavailable error. As per many answers in this forum I tried removing and adding the projects with no luck.

Below are the details. Let me know if you need anything else, thanks a lot for the help!

Take a look at the output window. It usually contains the error message.

  • Thanks Drutten, the output window is just empty. No error messages. Could it be a version compatible issue? is yes, how can I identify what is missing here? – The Dumb Coder Feb 15 '16 at 07:15

First of all the issue doesn't seems to be a Visual Studio related issue. If the issue is Visual Studio related then when you tried to open the Solution it will show a Incompatibility issue.

To resolve the issue first try to run Visual Studio in Administrator mode and open the solution. Sometimes Visual Studio cannot open projects without Administrator privileges.
