The preceding answer works but it's not the right way to fix the problem. See The latest installed .NET SDK not found which is the MS supported answer and explains why this failed.

Ok, I found the answer here: Configure .NET Core to use x86 SDK

But what is not listed in that answer is the location from which you can download the x86 version of the SDK. It's here:

https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/dotnet-core/sdk-2.1.4

So here's that I did:

  1. Close Visual Studio
  2. Un-install the x64 SDK (all versions of it)
  3. Manually remove all folders and files inside of C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk
  4. Download and run the x86 version of the SDK
  5. Re-open Visual Studio. And bam....
