Summary

  • Fixes Unable to open unloaded project files in Notepad++ #13
  • Detects unloaded projects by checking project.Kind against the unloaded project GUID ({67294A52-A4F0-11D2-AA88-00C04F688DDE})
  • Falls back to constructing the path from the solution directory and project.UniqueName when a project is unloaded

Test plan

  • Load a solution with multiple projects
  • Unload one of the projects (right-click -> Unload Project)
  • Right-click on the unloaded project and select "Open in Notepad++"
  • Verify the project file opens correctly in Notepad++

When a project is unloaded in Solution Explorer, project.FullName returns
an empty string. This change detects unloaded projects by checking the
project.Kind against the unloaded project GUID, then falls back to
constructing the path from the solution directory and project.UniqueName.
