I had this line randomly appear in my csproj git changes…

<ProjectExtensions><VisualStudio><UserProperties XamarinHotReloadGenericExceptionInfoBarBaseMAUIAppHideInfoBar=“True” /></VisualStudio></ProjectExtensions>

I didn’t put it there myself, unless by accidentally clicking something. Maybe it got put there automatically (like when you update nuget and it automatically updates the csproj)?

I don’t use XAML, nor hot reload, nor did I add any extensions, so I’m not sure why it appeared. I Googled for it and couldn’t really find anything about it. I don’t know if it’s safe to just delete it or if it needs to be there now?

    I’m not exactly sure what that is, but it looks like you might’ve clicked “Don’t show again” on some sort of pop-up. I don’t think it should be bad to remove.

      Hmmmm, now that’s interesting that you say that, because I keep getting a message about the Android emulator, and even though I have repeatedly clicked on it to “don’t show again”, it keeps damn well reappearing every time anyway! I gave up clicking on it when it never stopped appearing anyway. I wouldn’t have expected that to appear in my csproj though - I would’ve thought that’d appear in a global file somewhere.

        I guess sometimes extensions think settings like that should be project level. Maybe it’s because they don’t want you to accidentally disable that for all your projects 🤷‍♂️

          Except that’s maybe exactly what I did. 😂Still not sure what caused it to appear. But yeah I guess I have more visibility of it if it’s in a specific project.
