Visual Studio 2015: Failed to resolve mscorlib on target structure

I am trying to update a service link but I am getting the following error:

Failed to resolve mscorlib for target environment ".NETFramework, Version = v4.0". This can happen if the target structure is not set or if the structure is not formatted correctly.

  • .NET v4.0 installed.
  • Both "Update Service Link" and "Configure Service Link" give the same error.

This can happen if you have a wrong help desk configuration

try the following



  • open the csproj file in any text editor
  • then remove all links to any soap service or its files.
  • save and open the project in visual studio

In my project, nuget packages were not restoring correctly due to some connection issues. Once the nuget packages were successfully restored the error went away.
