❔ Renaming project / solution issues (c# dev kit)
I renamed every file and every reference and when I tried debugging it couldn't find the project. Somehow it's still looking for the old name but I've done a text search for the old name in the whole directory and I see nothing. What's the safe way of doing this?

Use the cli tools is the safest way.
dotnet remove reference command - .NET CLI
The dotnet remove reference command provides a convenient option to remove project to project references.
dotnet sln command - .NET CLI
The dotnet-sln command provides a convenient option to add, remove, and list projects in a solution file.
Use the cli to remove things; do renames; then add everything back in/together
@Mayor McCheese I'll give it a shot. Thanks

The default debugging config setup by dev kit doesn't work after the rename

app ran fine in vs though
It's probably more effort then it's worth; create new project structure in a new location and copy files then.
