Cloud Service project no longer loading

I have a Microsoft Visual Studio solution that I have been using for many years for producing a new release of our software application. One of the projects has recently stopped loading. It looks like the problem may be similar to:

Visual Studio 2013/2015 Can't Load Azure Project

However in that case it was a new installation of Visual Studio.

Looking in add/remove programs it appears that 'Microsoft Azure Tools for Microsoft Visual Studio 2013' has an installed date of 19th May this year and version number 2.5.21104.1601.

What is the simplest way for me to fix this problem? Should I uninstall the Azure Tools and see if I can download and install V2.4? or do I need to install a new version of Azure SDK, as the other question suggests?

Another option I have, might be to upgrade to Visual Studio 2017. I have been reluctant to do this, as am not sure what things might break.

EDIT: I notice in Extensions and Updates there is Microsoft Azure SDK 2.9 available. Should I install this?

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks

Phil.

As you said you could try installing Microsoft Azure SDK 2.9.

Here is the Microsoft Release summary for Azure SDK 2.9. Before installing Azure SDK 2.9 you should read this document whether your project having all the support in this SDK. If not then you should upgrade to, VS 2017.

From a developer word, I'd say upgrade to VS 2017 where you get/support all the latest features in your hand.
