I have an asp.net web site that I want to develop further, but I don't have
the Visual Studio project files for the site.
I have all the source files for the site (aspx, cs etc) and the site itself
is running quite happily on my development web server, however within Visual
Studio the only way to add an existing file has two problems:
1. You can only add one file at a time
2. You don't appear to be able to navigate into subfolders where all of my
existing project files are.
I can see from investigating the visual studio project files that the files
appear to be held in the .csproj file, so I assume it would be possible to
write something to generate the <files> section:
<Files>
<Include>
<File
RelPath = "AssemblyInfo.c s"
BuildAction = "Compile"
/>
<File
RelPath = "Global.asa x"
SubType = "Component"
BuildAction = "Content"
/>
<File
RelPath = "Global.asax.cs "
DependentUpon = "Global.asa x"
SubType = "Code"
BuildAction = "Compile"
/>
However I am looking for either a utility that can already do this (and of
course it would have to be able to calculate the "DependentU pon" entries
too) or some way for Visual Studio to "import" a web site.

Hey Robert,
Maybe this is too simplistic, but I don't think you're right about the
capabilities of adding files.
1. Open a VS.NET project on your machine.
2. Map a drive to the development Web server and location of the files.
3. Using Windows Explorer, select the files and folders you want to add.
4. Drag and drop the files and folders into the project in the Solution
Explorer pane.
That adds them en masse.

I switched to another PC and pulled all my source code

When I open my old solution, it refuses to include the

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
