I have a .Net Core project web project, and for various reasons want to convert it to a .Net Framework project.

Is there an easy way to do this, or do I have to start again and import the code from the previous projects

I have loaded core project to the VS 2017 RC Community and open *.csproj in text editor.

Just delete teg 

<RuntimeFrameworkVersion>

and replace

<TargetFramework>netcoreapp1.1</TargetFramework>

to 

<TargetFrameworkVersion>v4.6.1</TargetFrameworkVersion>

And after all in project properties set to any another framework and reset back (VS reload and repair *.csproj file).
