Adding an image to a project in Visual Studio

c#, visual-studio

Solution

You just need to have an existing file, open the context menu on your folder , and then choose `Add` => `Existing item...`

If you have the file already placed within your project structure, but it is not yet included, you can do so by making them visible in the solution explorer

and then include them via the file context menu

Problem

I added a folder to my project by right clicking on the project and adding a new folder. Now I added the image to the folder (using copy paste in Windows File Explorer), but the solution explorer is not showing my added image. I did refresh the solution as well. Also, in that folder, there is no option of adding an image, only Visual Studio files (new items etc).. Why isn't Solution Explorer showing my image?
