I'm trying to create a VS project/solution from a folder containing python files, a data folder.
The data folder is very large and contains a lot of files (Gigs of gray scale images). I've had trouble creating a new project using create from existing python code and I resorted to manually creating the .sln and .pyproj files (Created an empty project and ported over the created files).
I still can't open my solution. While some files and code appear on the screen when I try to load this project. VS does not respond to any action. I assume this is because it's trying to load in all the images in this folder.
Is there a way to tell Visual Studio to ignore this folder when loading in this project?
While writing this post the project finally loaded to a point where I could use VS. But it didn't load any of the files in the solution explorer other than the default files from the empty project I created to port over the .sln and .pyproj files. I unloaded the project and when I reloaded it the same initial issue reappeared (very very slow loading to the point of no response).
