What exactly is Working Directory in the properties of Visual Studio C# project.
I have see a project where I right click and go to Properties and then I go to Debug tab, it shows me Working Directory where Author of the code has specified folder in local machine. I want to know what does that working directory means and what kinds of file will it store in that directory.
Thank you in advance.
The working directory of a project (and any Windows program in general) is the default place in which a program is looking up it’s files. For example: My program has working directory C:\dir and tries to open test.txt, it would look in C:\dir\test.txt.
So every opened file will be opened relative to the working folder.
