Here is the thing that worked for me and it's mentioned here as an answer but hasn't been marked up or marked as an answer. This is actually the best and easiest solution. nothing else worked for me.

In Visual studio, make sure you choose the solution file (not project files) in the solution explorer. Then go "Project > [project]properties" in the left pane choose "Configuration Properties > Configuration" Now check the Deploy feature if possible. Only deployable projects have the option.
