❔ How to use build directory as working directory in debug

Hey, I have a class library that has a .json file in a sub-directory, it's marked as content and copies to the output folder. I reference this class library project, it builds properly to the selected output directory and the json file is there, but it seems like the working directory for the app that references the library is that of the .csproj, and since the json file is in the other project, when running the app it cannot find the file, how do I say that I want to run the app from the build directory and not project directory? (VS 2022)

Understand how to change the project settings for a C# .NET 5+ or .NET Core debug configuration in Visual Studio, using the Debug tab and Build tab of the project property pages.
