    is this a web project or winform?


    You should be able to just copy the projects (along w/ all the proj & solution files) to your new computer and it should work.

    If your project is a web application(assuming you dont have the Solution File),you can open your project as follows : (File>Open Website>File System>Select your Project root Folder>Open).
    If you have the solution file ( *.sln) ,you can open the project directly by clicking on it.I would recommend you to copy the projects to your local machine rather than opening them from the CD.

    I backed up a copy of a few projects I have on cd and now I want to load them on a new computer. I set this computer up exactly like the old one. I'm using Visual Studio .NET. What are the steps to do this successfully? I've tried a few times and it's not working. When I open up the site on the web I don't get the code files or I would just copy them.
    Thanks in advance

    Nothing seems to be working for me. I have some text backups of most of the files so I'll just copy and paste and rebuild that way.

    Thanks for your help.

    sorry.. couldn't be of much help.


    I ran into some similar nightmare before when trying to a web project to open up on a new computer... (but that was w/ vs.net 2k3). I had to do exactly what you did (just recreate the project and reimport all the source files)
