Open your project as website.

Open VS -> Go to -> File -> Open Website (Shift+Alt+O) -> select Your parent directory of your project (web site)

First Enable Show hidden files in folder option . In your solution folder you must have a folder named .vs in this folder you can find your solution file (*.sln). Copy that to your solution folder .

If not found

You must manually add all projects to new Solution

• in Visual Studio. Go to file -> New Project

• Then go to Other Project Types -> Visual Studio Solutions , You should see Blank Solution

• create a blank solution.

• right click on the solution and go to Add -> Existing Project and select your projects.
