After updating my windows 10 computer to the latest patch on 5/9, I tried opening a project I had been working on for about 2 months now. VS said it was "unsupported", and popped up with a bunch of failed to load packages. This caught me completely off guard. So following this I tried to see if I could create a new project and move the source files over. No template files would load, and I was unable to create /any/ project. I repaired VS twice, then uninstalled the 2015 version. I then installed the newly released 2017 version. The problem still persisted. How could I fix this? I've tried the devenv /installvstemplates and devenv /resetsettings or any other devenv command. Also deleted the %APPDATA% subfolder holding visual studio's temp files.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • You probably need to install NuGet packages that your project relies upon. It likely has dependencies that are not part of a standard install. Can't say for sure, as you didn't show us the exact error messages that you're getting. (Actually, I just saw the [c++] tag, as opposed to the C# implied by your user name. That makes NuGet packages a less likely theory, and the "packages" part of the error message even more strange.) – Cody Gray - on strike May 12 '17 at 08:28
  • In this instance I am using C++, – CPunkh May 13 '17 at 01:34
