Changing 'Target framework' drop-down adds mysterious folder #935

Closed scottaddie closed 7 years ago

scottaddie commented 7 years ago

Using VS 2017 RC (build number 26020.00) on Windows 10, I see a strange folder appear in Solution Explorer when changing the Target framework drop-down value to .NETCoreApp 1.1 in the project properties.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. File --> New --> Project --> ASP.NET Core Web Application (.NET Core) --> Web Application project template
  2. Update all NuGet packages to latest stable versions via the Manage NuGet Packages dialog
  3. Right-click project name in Solution Explorer, click Properties, change the Target framework drop-down value from .NETCoreApp 1.0 to .NETCoreApp 1.1, and save the changes. Notice that the folder highlighted in the screenshot below appears in Solution Explorer:

If you update the Microsoft.DiaSymReader.Native package to the newer, unreleased (1.5.0-beta2-24728) version, that folder will go away once you close and reopen visual studio.

This is fixed in the upcoming release of Visual Studio 2017
