An even easier and faster solution for Xamarin Forms projects, no need to touch csproj file at all, very quick fix.

Make sure you have Show All Files selected for solution explorer - it may be on by default.

1. Select all affected files
2. Right click > Exclude from Project
3. Select the same files again (should be faded out)
4. Right Click > Include in Project

They should now all be nested correctly and all the changes necessary to the .csproj file will be done.

You may have an InitializeComponent() does not exist in the current context) error after this. If that's the case, the simple fix is..

• Select all affected items and change Build Action from Page to Embedded Resource
