I have VS 2012 professional and have installed ASP.Net MVC 3 and when I attempt to open the Infragistics.IgniteUI.SamplesBrowser.sln, I receive an error message:
The selected file is a solution file, but was created by a newer version of this application and cannot be opened.
I then tried creating opening Infragistics.IgniteUI.SamplesBrowser.csrproj and receive an error message: The project type is not supported by this installation
Then, I created a new project using the Ignite UI Start MVC 3 (ASPX) template which was successful, then add the Infragistics.IgniteUI.SamplesBrowser.csrproj and received the same error message as above.
Any ideas on how to resolve this are greatly appreciated as I would like to take full advantage of the samples.
Thanks

Hello,
As discussed in the private case there are several possible reasons causing this issue. The target framework in the Samples web.config file might not match with your Visual Studio. The web.config file could be found at the Ignite Infragistics\UI 2013.1\Samples\MVC directory. To ensure correct behavior the ‘targetFramework’ section in this file should be set to 4.0.
It is also possible the Ignite UI Samples you have installed to require MVC 4. Usually the latest samples available require the latest MVC version.
It should be checked if the Web Developer feature is enabled and if the IIS Express is available. These are common reasons causing this issue.
If you have more questions or suggestions that you would like to discuss here please let me know.
