Answer 1

Option 1:

Install DotNetCore.1.0.1-VS2015Tools.Preview2.0.3. You can stay in xproj.

Option 2:

Install Visual Studio 2017 and auto upgrade from xproj to csproj.

Option 3:

Follow below steps to upgrade from xproj to csproj and to stay in Visual Studio 2015.

Warning: Using the below process you will not be able to use VS2015 to Load PCM web. Instead you have to stick and work with DOTNET CLI (Command Line Prompt) or VSCode IDE

Step 1: Download and Install .NET Core from this link https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/core

Step 2: Go to global.json. Modify version number to version installed in PC (for my pc it is 1.0.1).

Old:
{
  "projects": [ "Source" ],
  "sdk": { "version": "1.0.0-preview2-003131" }
}

New:
{
  "projects": [ ""Source" ],
  "sdk": { "version": "1.0.1-*" }
}

Step 3: Goto Command Prompt as administrator and run command

dotnet migrate
dotnet restore
dotnet build
dotnet run
