VS project convert

I developed a .Net project using Visual Studio Express 2013. Now I need to convert the project into Visual Studio 2010. The first issue is that I cannot open project file, see attached file. After I open the project, it marked incompatible. I need to help to resolve this issue. Thanks.

you could create a new project in VS2010 and add your files to it.
is your project targeting framework 4.0 (or less)?
Things convert from older to newer versions, unfortunately not the other way round like you require.

The simplest would be to rename it in the explorer (not visual studio) then create a new project of the original name and project type.  Now copy and paste the original files to this new folder and import them into the new project in visual studio.
