I thought I did delete the file in WE and I thought I double checked it. Then I removed it from VS project. But when I tried to add the folder of the same name in VS I was getting messages that I could not do it.
Thank you.


>It's not because of VS. It's because the folder exists on disk. Go into Windows Explorer and delete the folder, then add it into VS.

>BTW, all project files in VS are simply XML files. The filename is the same as the project with a .csproj or .vbproj extension. In VS, you can right-click on the project and select Unload, then right-click again to edit the file. When done, right-click and reload the project. Be careful spelunking into the project file.

>>Another little issue I ran into. If I delete a folder from the VS project (e.g. Content), I cannot later add a folder of the same name. As if VS simply "marks" the folder as deleted but it is still somewhere. Anybody knows which file I need to hack to get rid of the folder name so that I can add it again?
