Downgrade Visual Studio 2019 back to Visual Studio 2017

There is a lot of answers related to upgrading a solution from Visual Studio 2017 to Visual Studio 2019 on StackOverflow. But how do I downgrade back to Visual Studio 2017? When I try to build a project in Visual Studio 2017 I get the following error:
Error MSB8020.
The build tools for v142 (Platform Toolset = 'v142') cannot be found. To build using the v142 build tools, please install v142 build tools. Alternatively, you may upgrade to the current Visual Studio tools by selecting the Project menu or right-click the solution, and then selecting "Retarget solution".
Before that, I used Visual Studio 2019 with the solution and it worked fine. But now I have to use Visual Studio 2017 instead and as expected I have errors. Is there a way to fix it not recreating the solution manually? Thanks for advice!
This problem is with your MSBuilder, re check the version of MSBulder in Visual Studion sometime it may be still support for vs2019.
or
You can changed this in your project
to: Project->Properties->General->Platform Tool_set and change to the current version of your VS.
Think this will be helpful.!

Open a vdproj file with VS Community 2017?

I retrieved a C++ VS project from 2011 and it has a Install-win32.vdproj I guess it has to be the file I need to open in order to build the project.
Unfortunately Visual Studio 2017 seems not to recognize this kind of file. Is there any ways to interpret it or convert it?
For VS2017, use the Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Projects. Download link is below. Be sure to close Visual Studio before running the installer:

Reporting Template (RDLC) not exists in Visual Studio 2017

Reporting template Component (RDLC) not exists to as New Item in Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise.
How to resolve this?
I have tried by installing SQL Server Data Tools.
Previously it works for me in Visual Studio 2015.
There is a bug in the extension Microsoft Rdlc Report Designer for Visual Studio that the ReportViewer shows up as a non-visual component.
Instead use the NuGet Package Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportViewerControl.WinForms for each project that will use the ReportViewer. Part of the solution involves removing the ReportViewer from the toolbox after use and restarting Visual Studio before opening the next project/solution.
Please see this answer to a similar question for step by step details.
The RDLC editor for VS2017 is only available as a VSIX installer from the marketplace: Download
I have just used VS2015 to add the new item. All other stuff seems to be fine in VS2017 (bearing in mind that you installed the VSIX extension)

Changing the default compiler in visual studio 2010

I have the Visual Studio 2010 installed in my system. However, my company has a different central build system and uses the compiler from Visual Studio 6. Is it possible for me to use this compiler for compiling my C++ projects in Visual Studio 2010? If yes, where to configure this?
I checked in the project settings dialog, but couldn't find any option for this. I know how to use the old compiler from the command line and I don't want to do that.
The Daffodil for Visual Studio extension (http://daffodil.codeplex.com) allows you to set any installed toolset/compiler under Project settings in VS 2010.

how to enable c++ support in visual studio 2010?

I want to create a C++ project in Visual studio 2010 but I don't
see any template for a C++ project. All I see is visual c# templates.
Please let me know how to enable c++ support in visual studio 2010.
You likely have Visual Studio installed without the C++ compiler. You have to start the installer and alter the installation so that C++ compiler is installed.
You probably need to reinstall it. During installation there is a choice of languages and features. Probably C++ was not chosen when it was installed on your system.
