Visual Studio doesn't like LF line endings in solution files and always converts them to CRLF when doing changes to the solution. Notably, this affects the solutions in the release archive.

@MarcelRaad, thanks for your PR! By analyzing the history of the files in this pull request, we identified @jay, @bagder and @maxdymond to be potential reviewers. |

Visual Studio can handle LF and CRLF. What version are you seeing problems with and can you show the error |
|
Yes, Visual Studio can read both CRLF and LF. But it always converts the line endings to CRLF when changing anything and then saving the solution. This is only a minor issue, it makes working with some diff tools inconvenient, for example, when looking for what's changed between the solution from the release archive and the modified one. I've seen that in all versions since at least 2010. |
Chalk it up to gremlins for now, if we see it repeated then one of us can investigate. Here's another weird one.
Ok, I have no objection |
