Visual Studio 2017 Project not supported

Hi

I am using Visual Studio 2017 (vc 14.1).

For some VS projects, VTune amplifier works well but for the other, it doesn't.

When I try to 'Profile with VTune Amplifier' in VS IDE, it says 'The selected type of Visual Studio project is not supported by VTune Amplifier'.

Any advice for this error?

My project configuration is as follows:

I just found out that the Intel VTune Amplifier profiling does not work for the VS project itself (.vcxproj).

After saving the project as a VS solution (.sln) and reopening the project with the solution file (.sln), 

VTune Amplifier profile works as exepected.
