Change a projects directory

I recently started working on an already existing project. Upon digging in some random files in the project I found out that a lot of the project names and project folders don't line up. Example: Project A's code is actually stored under C:\...\Project B\Project A.mds. This is happening a lot. Is there a way to edit the folder path for a project?



I attached a photo in case my example wasn't clear. Note how the file name matches the project name, but if you look at the directory containing the project, it doesn't match. (Not a problem for the first two items which is why they're crossed out.)

    Hi Michael,





    You can remove a project from the suite without deleting the project files (choose Remove, not Delete), rename the folder containing the project and then add the project to your suite again.





    I have registered a suggestion to rename the folder containing a project when the project is renamed. Thank you.

    David,



    Please increment this request by one. I'd like to see this functionality as well. 



    Thanks,



    Chuck

    Is there any chance of this being implemented soon? Changing the name of a project any other way is just too time consuming and tedious to do it for large projects.
