Opening solution file but does not want to open all the project files.

How do I find a moved file? I don't think I deleted it but there might be another solution in the same folder that might be causing the issue.

C:\Users\Owner\Documents\Visual Studio 2017\Projects\PJC text tab fixer\PJC text tab fixer.vbproj : error : The project file or web has been moved, renamed or is not on your computer.

Hi @JonathanBrotto-3536 ,
Take a look at the following solution[should also work in vb project]:
How can I recover a corrupt .csproj file in Visual Studio 2010?

Could we do this without creating a new solution?

I think what you can do is to use the Solution Explorer to rename the existing solution then close the solution and close Visual Studio. Then in the Files Explorer rename the folder of the solution to the same name you gave the solution in the Solution Explorer. Then when you go back into Visual Studio you can use the name that the solution is currently named. If you need to you can always reverse the renames to get the names back to what they are now.

I see a PJC text tab fixer file that does not show an extension but the Type column shows Visual Studio Solution. What happens when you open that one (the one without ".sln")?

Hi @JonathanBrotto-3536
When you open PJC text tab fixer.sln , does PJC text tab fixer project appear to be unloaded?
Consider updating the address of project in .sln file.

Could you provide some details in your .sln file(open with Notepad).
