Is there any Tools or Extensions Features available, To overcome this issue

Error shown in IDE

Any one please help in solving this error in Visual Studio.

Answer 1

Right-click any given *.ejs file, and Select "Open With". In the dialog that opens, select "HTML (Web Forms) Editor" and select it as default.

Now, when you open your EJS files, you will get syntax highlighting and intellisense for your HTML. This does not give you support for EJS Code snippets, but will not throw errors.
