For the cases where MS build tools is installed, the best choice is the environment variable CONAN_SKIP_VS_PROJECTS_UPGRADE. So, you don’t need to change anything in your recipe.

@AndreyMlashkin I suppose you’re installing Visual Studio build tools, not a Visual Studio IDE. unfortunately, this one doesn’t include devenv.exe/devenv.com. so far, I’ve spent quite a time googling, but I was unable to find any way to upgrade VS project without devenv. maybe there is a way to do it via pure msbuild, but in its sources there is no clue. maybe it could be done somehow via Visual Studio COM API, but I also was unable to find any suitable example for that. last thing, is to write some open-source converter, but it might be tricky (given how complex sln/dsw/vcproj/vcxproj format is). I wish I could help, but it probably requires to ask someone from Microsoft 😦
