This problem still happen in UE 4.13. I followed the advise to “Set as startup project”, and everything is resolved.

Hi, this post has already a solution, but those solutions didn’t apply to me. I will explain now how my situation was different from the one presented by OP , and then the solution.

When i clicked “generate solution files” for some reason the solution automatically generated only contained the UE4 , but not the actual project. ( On the right panel you could only see "solution ‘yourGame’ 1 of one , and only had the Engine folder.
To create the solution correctly, open the editor and click create a new cpp.
that forced a complete rebuild of the solution , and from there visual studio opened up correctly and i could go on to selecting the actual project as the startup one.
Hope this helps someone
