title: What is a Sqlite database doing in my project's .vs folder?
body: <p>I have now noticed this in VS 2017 in a Core console app, and a standard .NET Framework MVC app. It is named <code>&lt;solution-name&gt;.sqlite</code>, and has the following tables:</p>
  
  <pre><code>FileScannerCache
  FileSystemData
  FileSystemEntity
  FileSystemReference
  ProviderEntity
  Setting
  SymbolDefinition
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It seems to contain MSBuild related data, but when I query some tables, like</p>
  
  <pre><code>select * from FileScannerCache
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get the error <code>System.FormatException: String was not recognised as a valid DateTime</code>. I'm using the Sqlite/SQL Server Compact Toolbox to examine and query this db.</p>
