We have portability analyzer tool to check .NET framework to .NET Core upgradation status. Is any tool available to check portability between only VS 2017 to VS 2019 upgrade.?

    As far as I know, there is no separate tool to check the portability between Visual Studio upgrades. Most of the time you should be able to open VS 2017 solution/project in VS 2019. However, there can be some projects which aren't compatible (this is unlikely in your case since you have VS 2017) or needs a change in csproj file.

    You can find more information here: Project migration and upgrade reference for Visual Studio
