I've Visual Studio 2017 community edition. I have a C# project created using Visual Studio 2015. When I try to open the project in VS 2017 I get an error message prompt:
--------------------- Microsoft Visual Studio
Project 'dataStructureInCSharp' could not be opened because the Visual C# 2017 compiler could not be created. Please re-install Visual Studio.
--------------------------- OK
