    Hi Chris

    Except the upgrading procedure in the link I mentioned, some hints are also helpful to upgrade your Lightswitch project from VS 2012 to VS 2013.

    Extensibility projects created with the Visual Studio LightSwitch 2012 Extensibility Toolkit can be upgraded to run in Visual Studio 2013 by making a few modifications to the project files.

    1. Upgrade the Solution

    2. Modify the Lspkg Project File

    1. In the ProjectName.Client folder, select the ProjectName.Client file and open it in Notepad.
    2. At the top of the file change the ToolsVersion in the <Project> tag from “4.0” to “12.0”
    3. Locate the <PropertyGroup> that contains the line:

    <LightSwitchPath Condition=" '$(LightSwitchPath)' == '' ">$(Registry:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\11.0@InstallDir)</LightSwitchPath>

    Refer Beth's post for further information: Upgrading LightSwitch Extension Projects to Visual Studio 2013

    In addition, these tips are also available for you to upgrading existing Lightswitch projects to Visual Studio 2013 RC.

    Best regards
