Something has happened to me and now Visual Studio 2013 freezes on right click on a folder. Is there a way to create a folder besides doing it from the context menu?

  • Is this happening in specific situations (does this happen when running Visual Studio as Administrator?), or a certain condition? Do you have full read/write access to the project's root? – AStopher Oct 23 '14 at 18:59
  • You should probably uninstall any (new first) extensions you've installed and if none of those work do a repair install on visual studio. You can drag / drop existing folders from explorer into visual studio as well but you should fix the source of the problem – John Oct 23 '14 at 19:08

Yes, you can create folders in the file system using your favorite file manager and folders which you see in your Visual Studio are either just xml one-liners in *.*proj file

<ItemGroup>
   <Folder Include="path\to\folder\" />
</ItemGroup>

or visual helpers derived automatically from the structure of the other group items.
