Visual studio 2012 cant compile a solution made with VS 2013
c, visual-studio, visual-studio-2012, visual-studio-2013
Solution
This is normal for certain types of projects. MSDN has a Project Compatibility page which lists the project compatibility and round trip capabilities by project type.
For example, if you make a Windows Store app on 2013, it will automatically target Windows 8.1, which will only work on VS 2013, and not VS 2012. However, a C# Windows Forms project will round trip with no issues.
Problem
the title says it all, but let me elaborate. I have a Visual studio 2013 at home, and whenever I create a code, copy it and take it to work where I open & compile it, it doesnt let me compile the file. When I try to do it the opposite way (open VS 2012 file in VS2013) it wants to update some librarys. Anyway I hope this was understandable and I hope for any advices. Thanks !
