title: Visual Studio can't find .NET Core SDK?
body: <p>I've got Visual Studio 2015 Professional installed, as well as what I <em>should</em> need to run and debug .NET Core code.  Those packages are:</p>
  
  <p>Microsoft .NET Core 1.0.0 - SDK Preview 2 (x64)<br>
  Microsoft .NET Core 1.0.0 - SDK Preview 2 (x86)<br>
  Microsoft .NET Core 1.0.0 - VS 2015 Tooling Preview 2</p>
  
  <p>When I try to open an existing .NET Core app that was developed on a Mac, I get the following error popup in Visual Studio:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/ur5MH.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/ur5MH.png" alt="Visual Studio Failure Message"></a><br>
  When I run the <code>dotnet --version</code> command in <code>cmd.exe</code>, I get the following output:  <code>1.0.0-preview2-003121</code>.</p>
  
  <p>Am I missing some version of something?  I've gone over a bunch of other posts that suggested that making sure that the DotNet CLI was uninstalled would fix this kind of problem, but I don't have it installed, and I'm still not able to get Visual Studio to correctly restore packages or build a .NET Core app.</p>
