    Hello,
    I tried to migrate to unity 5.3 and now i can't build my project to windows store 8.1. An error occure even if I build an empty project.
    FileNotFoundException: Failed to locate 'C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\WindowsXaml\v12.0\Microsoft.Windows.UI.Xaml.CSharp.targets', please ensure you have Visual Studio 2013 with Windows Store Apps installed.

    I have visual studio 2015. And in unity 5.2.3 it was worked. Is any workaround possible?

    Accidentally there was a requirement added to have VS2013 if you want to build 8.1... This is fixed in upcoming patch release.
    While you wait,there are two workarounds:
    * install VS2013

    or

    * move Microsoft.Windows.UI.Xaml.CSharp.targets from
    C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\WindowsXaml\v14.0\8.1\Microsoft.Windows.UI.Xaml.CSharp.Targets

    to

    C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\WindowsXaml\v12.0\Microsoft.Windows.UI.Xaml.CSharp.targets
