Visual Studio Express 2017 - Visual Bug - visual-studio-express

I have searched quite a bit to find out what is going wrong but cannot find any relevant information, here is what my Visual Studio Express 2017 looks like in WPF App (.Net Framework 4.6.1).

This is a theme issue found in the latest version of Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2017, changing the theme to Dark or Light instead will fix this visual bug.

Microsoft Visual Studio 2017 Mac: Where is server explorer?

I’m trying to make an SQL connection using server explorer, but I can’t seem to locate it on Visual Studio 2017 on Mac. I tried creating a New Solution as well and look for it under View, but it still does not pop up.
Where could it be located?
Thank you in advance and will be sure to accept/upvote answer!
Unfortunately, Server Explorer is not (yet) available for the Visual Studio for the Mac. Microsoft has not yet clarified whether Visual Studio for the Mac will always be different than the traditional VS, but so far that is the case.
Until Microsoft clarifies, we have to think of Visual Studio for the Mac as "partially compatible" with Visual Studio. Though not quite the same, it's similar to how Visual Studio Code is kept separate, though it keeps the valuable "Visual Studio" name.

No razor syntax coloring/Unable to set breakpoints in razor Visual Studio 2013 Preview

I have recently installed Visual Studio 2013 preview a long with the ASP.NET and Web Tools for Visual Studio 2013 update. I have also got ReSharper 8.0 installed with it.
Since installing it, and opening an Umbraco project which was created in Visual Studio 2012, all my razor syntax colouring has disappeared, and I am also unable to set breakpoints in the razor code. When I try and set a breakpoint I get this message:
"A breakpoint could not be inserted at this location"
I have searched all over the internet for similar issues, but I can't seem to find a definitive reason or solution. The only lead I have found is in the comments on Scott Gu's blog, on his post about MVC3 RC, and in the comments it says that ReSharper can sometimes interfere with Visual studio syntax colouring etc.
I have tried the suggestions (reverting back to VS intellisense/code hinting etc) but I still have no syntax colouring on razor, and I still cannot set breakpoints in razor either.
As I said previously, the project was created in Visual Studio 2012 with ReSharper 7.1 installed and all the VS updates installed, and these problems did not exist.
Has anyone had this issue before? For any version of VS?
Thanks.
Previously had issues with this as well (although syntax highlighting wasn't a problem, but debugging was).
Go here for an update on debugging issues:

VS 2013 Update 2 seems to have resolved it for me.

Trying to get old report model .smdlproj to work in Visual studio 2010

I have a .smdlproj report model file. When I try to open it in visual studio 2010 it throws an error saying the project type is unsupported. With some research it looks like the last version to support this format was visual studio 2008.
Does anyone know if theres anyway I can upgrade the project, or install anything on 2010 that would make it compatible? Thanks.
They don't open in anything later than visual studio 2008, simple as that apparently.

It should be included with Visual C++ Express.
