title: Visual Studio retrieving an incorrect path to a project from somewhere
body: <p>Visual Studio (and possibly TFS) has somehow (I think perhaps during a source control merge) become confused about the path of a project within my solution.</p>
  
  <p>It thinks it is here (example paths for simplicity):</p>
  
  <pre><code>C:\My Projects\ExampleSolution\ExampleProjectWrong\ExampleProjectCorrect.csproj
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>whereas actually, the project file is located here:</p>
  
  <pre><code>C:\My Projects\ExampleSolution\ExampleProjectCorrect\ExampleProjectCorrect.csproj
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I cannot for the life of me get it to recognize the correct location. I have tried:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><p>Removing and re-adding the project from the correct location. An error message comes up saying <code>The project file at C:\My Projects\ExampleSolution\ExampleProjectWrong\ExampleProjectCorrect.csproj could not be found</code>.</p></li>
  <li><p>Manually editing the .sln file to ensure all references to <code>ExampleProjectCorrect.csproj</code> have the correct paths.</p></li>
  <li><p>Doing a find in files on the solution directory for both the correct and incorrect paths, to try and track down where studio is hiding the incorrect path.</p></li>
  <li><p>Deleting the cache directories for VS and TFS</p></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I'm tearing my hair out because I can't recreate the solution as it has near as makes no difference 100 projects in and is tied in to source control with several other developers working on it.</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone point me in the right direction as to where it is storing this incorrect path and/or how to reset it so the damn thing will load correctly?</p>
