How to: Remove Solution Folders

When you remove a Solution Folder from a solution, the Solution Folder and all the projects and items that it contains are disassociated from the solution but the physical files for the project and items still exist in storage. Although the project is no longer required in the current solution, it can be added to another solution.

Note

Whole solutions cannot be removed from with Visual Studio. To remove a solution, delete the solution folder in Windows Explorer.
