Recently I have been working on a project and have been waiting to publish it to Azure. Before I was able to do this my local user account on my machine was changed. Now when I try to add the project solution to the solution control explorer I get "access to path [old username]/my documents/projects is denied." I have the project copied from the old user account onto the new one I am using. I opened from this location, but it still seems to reference the old path. How do I change this and/or what settings do I need to change?
I have uploaded the project into the source control explorer for the project, and the rest of the team can view it. It is possible to re-load the project from here and create a new work space mapping on the new local account? If so how can I do this?
I managed to get it moved by doing the following, thanks jessehouwing for the push in the right direction.
- Closed Visual Studio
- Went to old account, copied project directly to the C drive
- Went to the new account, opened the project from there
- Deleted mapping referenced in the picture in jessehouwing's answer
- Created new mapping under a different name, because even though the old one was removed, there was still a naming conflict (I have no clue)
- Mapped the source control and local folder from scratch
