> In Solution Explorer, right-click the root project folder that contains the pages and classes that you want to convert, and then click Convert to Web Application.

This article is about "Visual Studio 2010"

I don't find "Convert to Web Application" on Visual Studio 2017

1. Create a new Web Application project
2. Copy all of your website contents into it (you could create the *.csproj file in the same website directory, then include all files into the project without actually having to move them)
3. The "Convert to Web Application"  command will be available on the WebApp project (under the Project menu, at the bottom)

Hi Luicst,

I try to refer the steps mentioned by the other community member and I can see that option in Project Tab.
