I have an ASP.NET WebForms application that I’m adding some ASP.NET MVC to.

I have it working, but how can I get Visual Studio to recognise that it’s now an MVC project and give me the context menu options to add a view, etc. inside a controller action method?

    Open the .csproj file with your favorite text editor (not Visual Studio) and add the following GUID:

    <ProjectTypeGuids>{F85E285D-A4E0-4152-9332-AB1D724D3325};{fae04ec0-301f-11d3-bf4b-00c04f79efbc};{349c5851-65df-11da-9384-00065b846f21}</ProjectTypeGuids>
    

    Notice the {F85E285D-A4E0-4152-9332-AB1D724D3325} GUID. This is what indicates that it is an ASP.NET MVC project.

    Once this GUID added to the ProjectTypeGuids node you will get the context menus.
