Determines whether to check that the target directory where the project is to be created does not exist. If the directory does exist, a fresh directory can be created for the project. This setting is typically overridden by the NewProjectRequiresNewFolder(VsTemplate) registry flag (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE(/Wow6432Node)/Microsoft/VisualStudio/<version number>/Projects/<project GUID>) that all common project types use to determine whether to create a new project in a new directory.

Syntax

<CreateNewFolder>
    true/false
</CreateNewFolder>
