I update the visual studio 2010 project to visual studio 2013.
Then I want to ad a new controller.
but there is no add Controller option.
But If I create a new project in 2013 it already have the add Controller option.
So how to add the new Controller? something missing in web.config or missing reference?
Make sure your .proj file includes all the appropriate project type Guids.
<ProjectTypeGuids>{E3E379DF-F4C6-4180-9B81-6769533ABE47};{349c5851-65df-11da-9384-00065b846f21};{fae04ec0-301f-11d3-bf4b-00c04f79efbc}</ProjectTypeGuids>
The first GUID allows all standard MVC operations in the context menus.
In my case Unloding and Reloading the project solved the problem. To unload - right click on the project name and choose "Unload Project" from the context menu. Then again right click on the project name and select "Reload Project" from the context menu.
Include Microsoft.ASP.NET MVC from Nuget Package in your project, you should be able to see the Add View menu when you right inside a method of controller class.
I was working with projects from a tutorial series. Tried addinging controller would lock up VS2013 for a few seconds but i couldnt add anything. no context menu would popup. I first needed to go into nuget package manager and update that. not sure if it's a missing GUID or some assembly but that fixed the issue.
I had problem with Add View and Add->Controller not showing up. My project type GUIDs were fine. What worked for me was uninstalling MVC and then reinstalling thru NuGet.
Combining the answers given at Reinstall Microsoft Visual Studio Asp.net MVC 5 Scaffolding extension
somebody came up with a solution which worked

nothing is to be done only Add=>scafolding=>MvC5
from the img you upload
the Project you create is not the ASP.NET MVC Project
Maybe try create a ASP.NET MVC Project will find it
