Some time ago, when Visual Studio 2008 was the current release, we built a custom project creation wizard that uses a .ico file, a .vsdir file, and a .vsz file. The wizard can be used for either a C/C++ project or a C# project.
The documentation we wrote at the time in regard to where to place these three files seems to hold up through Visual Studio 2015. But Visual Studio 2017 is a different story.
For C/C++ projects, if I place the three files into C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE\VC\vcprojects, then things are fine. Visual Studio 2017 sees the wizard when I tell it I want to create a new Visual C++ project.
But I can't find where to put the three files so VS 2017 sees the wizard when I tell it I want to create a new Visual C# project. Does anyone know?
