More configuration profiles for one processor architecture (x64)

Question

Is possible to do more configuration profiles for one processor, e.g. "x64" and "x64-VS2015".
I need if because I use my application (dll plugin) with more version of Visual Studio. Reason is to keep back comaptibility with previsous version of main program.
I need two configuration with different parameters, but both Release/x64.

Thanks,
Majkl

Hi @MichalHadraba--3751,

For your requirement, you could try the following steps to create new project configurations for x64 platform:

1. On the menu bar, choose Build > Configuration Manager.
2. Select a project in the Project column.
3. In the Configuration drop-down list for that project, choose New.
4. The New Project Configuration dialog box opens.
5. In the Name box, enter a name for the new configuration.
6. To use the property settings from an existing project configuration, in the Copy settings from drop-down list, choose a configuration.
7. To create a solution-wide configuration at the same time, select the Create new solution configuration check box.
