You may need to update a few things...

In Visual Studio 2017 -> open your project -> then in the Solution Explorer (in your project) right-click on "References" -> then click "Manage Nu-Get Packages -> then in the Nuget window you will want to update "Microsoft.CodeDom.Providers.DotNetCompilerPlatform" and "Microsoft.Net.Compilers" to the latest versions, which are currently versions: v1.0.5 and v2.2.0 respectively.

If you continue getting an error, go into your Projects "bin" folder in the Solution Explorer and look for any errors... you may need to delete "Microsoft.CodeDom.Providers.DotNetCompilerPlatform.xml" from the bin folder.
