‘Xrm’ does not exist in namespace ‘Microsoft’ – Build error while referring CRM 2015 SDK Dll’s

I got below annoying build error while adding early binding class to my Plug-in Project and build.

XRM does not exist in namespace

It was bit strange as I already referred ‘Microsoft.XRM.SDK.dll’ from CRM 2015 SDK.

Reason :

CRM 2015 SDK has built on .Net 4.5.2 Framework and my Visual studio does not support 4.5.2

Fix:

Download and Install NET Framework 4.5.2 Developer Pack
Open your Plug-in project Properties from Visual Studio and set ‘Target Framework’ to 4.5.2.

Application Target Framework
