VC++ Directories Editor

VC++ Directories Editor is a handy little tool that helps you change the default folder paths for Visual C++. The best part? You don't even have to install it! It comes with some basic options that are super easy to set up.

Portable and Easy to Use

This program is portable, which means you can save it anywhere on your computer. Just click the executable (whether it's 32 bit or 64 bit), and boom—you’re ready to go! It will try to find the Microsoft.Cpp.Win32.user.props file automatically, and if it can’t, it’ll just ask you to point it in the right direction.

User-Friendly Interface

The interface is pretty straightforward. It’s wrapped up in a classic window that clearly shows all your options. You can see the default directories for executables, includes, references, libraries, library WinRT, sources, and exclusions. Plus, you can change any of these to whatever works for you!

Customizable Folder Paths

You can create a list with multiple folder paths for each directory. Want to change their order? No problem! You can easily remove any path or even switch the interface language if you need to.

Light on Resources

This software doesn’t take up much space on your system—it's light on CPU and RAM usage. I didn’t run into any error messages while using it, and it didn't hang or crash at all. Even though there aren’t tons of features packed into VC++ Directories Editor, it provides a quick and reliable way to modify those default Visual C++ directories. Oh, and did I mention you can indicate multiple paths for the same folder?
