Microsoft® Visual InterDev™ repairs links for files located in the current Web project only.

Repair links in referring files

Select to repair links automatically when you move or rename any file or folder in a project. Links in the moved or renamed files, as well as links in files that refer to the moved or renamed files, are updated with the new file name or path.

When this option is chosen and you change the name or location of a file, Visual InterDev changes the file and may add unexpected white space to the page.

Don't repair links in referring files

Select to disable automatic link repair. Links in the moved or renamed files are updated, but links in files that refer to the moved or renamed files are not updated.

You should manually update the links in referring files following a move or rename operation. Use Link View to identify links in referring files for the moved or renamed file. For more information, see Identifying Broken Links.

Ask me each time

Select to have a dialog box prompt you to enable or disable link repair for that operation in files that refer to the moved or renamed files. Whenever you move or rename a file or folder, automatically repairs links in the moved or renamed files.

Get read-only

Select to create a read-only local copy of any file you open when there is no prior working copy of that file if a Web project is under source control.

Ask me each time
