    Moving a project

    I'm building a project from a tutorial which comes with loads of other projects. I want to move it from the original folder which is full of loads of junk I don't want, into a folder of my own. It does have several files in the project. I've tried just moving all of the files manually but that throws out lots of errors. I've also tried exporting the template but that also gives errors when I try loading them in.

    So, is there a way to just save my whole project to an entirely different location along with all of it's files? Or if I have to do it manually, how do I correct all the errors that pop up (I can list them if necessary but I'm thinking this might be a common problem and there might be an explanation somewhere).

    Re: Moving a project

    Solutions and projects can be moved around at will, as long as the entire solution folder contents or project folder contents is moved together AND any external references are also maintained. For instance, if you have two projects in a solution and project 1 depends on project 2, you can't just move project 1 because it will fail when it tries to reference project 2. Other than that, projects are completely portable.
