Not sure what is causing this odd behavior: Step1: I had a project, one solution , one project.

C:\Repos\CatWeather

So CatWeather.csproj and CatWeather.csproj are in this folder. Builds fine. OK. Now I right click on the solution and choose to Add A New Project, a Unit Test project. Well I do want them to be under same source control branch so I choose the location of this one to be inside the same folder enter image description here

And that's where it gets messed up. Look at what it does: enter image description here

enter image description here

This is wrong and causes build to fail. Even if I delete that extra folder, it keep building it and putting it back. Why is it doing that?

  • Seems like some build configuration, Maybe there something messed up in project properties? I would also try analyze *.sln file and *.csproj file to see if there are any unexpected issues (compare with the other project that is correctly set). Also, you could try recreating the project.

  • @MichałTurczyn compared now. Nothing out of ordinary. A good sample project the only different as that's older and .NET 6.0 but build , config, etc were the same which are both pretty much the defaults you get by wizard building the apps. Commented Apr 5, 2024 at 13:45

  • Does the problem happen in new project or latest Visual Studio? Commented Apr 18, 2024 at 9:28
  • @MinxinYu-MSFT yes, latest VS Professional and brand new projects. The "exclude" solution that was suggested in the link above from Hans solved the problem. Commented Apr 18, 2024 at 11:32
