How do I force unity to open my project in visual studio 2017 and not 2015?

Unity Engine

I recently installed VS2017. Now, I have two versions of visual studio on my machine. My unity project was originally created with visual studio 2015.

Is there something special I need to do to force unity to open the project in visual studio 2017?

I figured it out. Unity doesn’t automatically detect my visual studio 2017 install. It also doesn’t open the vs solution with the editor it was created with.

I had to attach the editor manually in the preferences \ external tools menu and browse to “C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Enterprise\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe”

Edit-Preferences-External Tools->External Script Editor

Browse to the location of VS2017’s .exe file.

EDIT: I WAS TOO SLOW!
