How can I find the location of the solution / project on my hard drive in Visual Studio?

I want to know where the solution / project is stored on my hard drive.

I would have thought that right clicking on a project from Visual Studio would have information about where it is stored on my hard drive, but it doesn't.

Click on the project itself in the solution explorer and in the properties window it will display the project folder.



Only works if you actually saved the project. That is, newly created projects have no place.

One way is to select the project in the solution explorer and then click File / Save As or press F4 and view the Project Folder property.

Start Visual Studio and go to Tools-> Options.

In the dialog box that opens, select the Show all settings check box.

From there you should find a setting called Projects and Solutions, which will have a list of default locations for projects, templates, etc.

Once you've loaded your project into Visual Studio, select your solution in the Solution Explorer window and then select Properties. You will see "Path" in the Properties window, which points to the actual file.

Open one of the files in your solution and hover over the tab in the code window. The full path will appear in the tooltip.

You can also go to Window | Windows ... which shows the full path to all open files.
