VS2010: how to remove/hide the "External Dependencies" folder in Solution Explorer
In VS2010 they added to all projects a virtual directory called "External Dependencies":

It really bothers me especially because if there is a normal folder named "Apple" and one named "Deep" it will be in between the two, and also the information it 开发者_运维问答gives is, in my opinion, completely useless.
Is there any way to remove or hide it?
Don't know if you figured this out yourself but looking at this page you can disable it in the Options dialog (from the Tools menu).
On the right side panel expand the Text Editor section, then expand C/C++ and then click on Advanced. Set the Disable External Dependencies Folder to True and restart Visual Studio.
As mentioned by Michael in the comments, apparently you don't need to restart Visual Studio but can just close and re-open the solution to see the effects.
