  • Why do you want to copy projects around? Worst kind of copy/paste I can think of. – Oded Jun 19 '11 at 19:13

    Do you really want to copy the project? The same project can be part of many solutions, just "add existing project". Changes will then be available to all solutions. Otherwise copying the folder works fine. – adrianm Jun 19 '11 at 19:15

Yes, you can copy the project folder and just add it to the new solution. Also note, that you can have a single project in multiple solutions, if for instance you have a solution for each project and a global solutions for all the projects you have.
