Project Type GUID for ASP.NET Website project

Question

My ASP.NET solution has a Website project (with no csproj file). I need to know the project type GUID. How do I find it?

Answer 1

If we have known it is a web site project, we can refer to the list in the following link to find the correspond project type GUID.

Visual Studio Project Type GUIDs

For example:

Web Site    {E24C65DC-7377-472B-9ABA-BC803B73C61A}

I create a web project and open the sln file, I find they are the same.

Answer 2

The csproj file is not shown in the solution by default if you're using VS. You can try right clicking on the project, [Open Folder in File Explorer] & check for the csproj file there.

Answer 3

You should be able to see the projectType GUID in the solution (.sln) file. You could also check the link What is the significance of ProjectTypeGuids tag in the visual studio project file and see if it helps.
