Your installation of Visual Studio is probably missing the Visual Studio Tools for Unity extension. Try this installation guide: Get started with Visual Studio Tools for Unity

There is a previous forum that provides guidance on this issue which is still relevant in 2021:

One solution that worked for me that was not in that forum was going to the Solution Explorer tab in Visual Studios. Right click the solution and hit resolve errors. This may fix the issue.
