Why when I try to Build === Configuration Manager === Active solution platform === New does not open up a platform configuration window???

I have read that in order to process my .xlsx file using Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0 Connection String I need to create a "x86" Active Solution Platform.
Welllll, when I <Right-Click> on my Solution in Microsoft Visual Studio, and <Click> on
Configuration Manager and then <Click> the Active solution platform
and choose <New...> absolutely nothing happens. How can I try and create a new
Active solution platform if nothing happens and I don't get a dialog box or window?
Am I doing something wrong here?
Do I have a Setting that is incorrect?
Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

Hi ITBobbyP85,
After testing the issue in my SSIS project, I also couldn’t add a new Active solution platform in the SSIS project.
As per my understanding, I think the Active solution platform doesn’t supported in Business Intelligence projects (SSAS, SSRS and SSIS). If the project is application project(C#, VB, etc.), by default, the target platform is x86. And we can also configure
the project to target to a 64-bit platform. For more details about how to configure projects to target platforms, please see:

If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.
