I have multiple projects in visual studio 2015. I am running my project in "ANY CPU" in debug mode. when I am trying to Run my project, I get the following error:

The OutputPath property is not set for project '.csproj'. Please check to make sure that you have specified a valid combination of Configuration and Platform for this project. Configuration='Debug' Platform='x64'.
This error may also appear if some other project is trying to follow a project-to-project reference to this project, this project has been unloaded or is not included in the solution, and the referencing project does not build using the same or an equivalent Configuration or Platform. C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\bin\Microsoft.Common.CurrentVersion.targets
