Set-up Default Clone Project Directory for Visual Studio 2022
Quickly set up default directory when cloning repositories, in less than 2 minutes.
If you’re new to Visual Studio 2022, and likes to use Git Hub or Azure DevOps repositories to work on your project, you might wonder how to quickly configure a directory as your main working area.
For example, I like to put all of my projects in my folder called “Projects” in D: drive.
To do that, open up your Visual Studio 2022, you’ll be at the Start Window, click “Continue without Code”
After that, on the most-left side, press “Tools” on the main toolbar.
A dropdown list will appear, now, select “Options…”
After that, there are many features you can adjust, in the pop-up window, click the “Source Control” tab, and find “Git Global Settings”, on there, change the “Default location” section (you can also click the three dots beside the section to Browse for Folder).
And… done! Make sure to close the Visual Studio 2022 or restart your computer for the adjustment to take effect.
