CCS/TMS320F28377S: C2000 Hex Utility missing in CC8

In the second project, the C2000 Hex Utility is missing. 

Do you know which version of CCS/compiler tools were originally used to create this project? Most likely, it was created with a older version of compiler prior to when the Hex utility integration into CCS happened.

How do I turn on the Hex Utility for the second project? 

There are a couple of options. 

1) Use the post-build steps to specify hex conversion steps (Project Properties->Build->Steps tab), or

2) To use the GUI integrated hex utility, migrate the project to a newer version of the compiler (Project Properties->General->Compiler version).

I created the project from scratch and I do see the C2000 Hex Utility in the properties window but I am getting the following compilation error:

Any advice on what to do here?
