The word "Core" is not mentioned in your question. I advice you to please post the correct question to save our time. Anyway, there is no direct method of converting ASP.NET Core app to ASP.NET MVC app because it's a kind of downgrading. But you can refer to below site to see Migration from ASP.NET MVC to ASP.NET Core MVC and then try reverse engineering on this proces. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/migration/mvc?view=aspnetcore-2.1
