I am newbie in .NET Development. I just downloaded a built application and using the following products:
MVC 4 framework Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
But when I try to run .sln(solution file) file I get the following error:
C:\Users...\Desktop\contosouniversity\contosouniversity\contosouniversity.csproj : error : The project file 'C:\Users...\Desktop\contosouniversity\contosouniversity\contosouniversity.csproj' cannot be opened.
The project type is not supported by this installation.
I am using MVC4 framework for loading this project, Visual studio 2010 MVC4 framework seems to be working with lower versions i guess(i.e. MVC3) , if i am doing wrong, please let me know.
Is it necessary to download MVC3 as well?

I recommend you upgrade MVC using Web Tools Plataform or download here.

Yes, you have to install MVC3 and tools. Install them using Microsoft Web Platform
