I am finding an ipch folder in my project whose files are having an ipch extension. Plus, they are quite voluminous.
Can I get rid of them?
You can't change location of ipch file on persolution basis, but you can do it for whole VS installation. For this you need to change Always Use Fallback Location
in Tools>Options to true
. After this you can delete ipch folder from your solution's folder and it will not appear there again.
