 [MSBuild](../msbuild-visual-cpp.md) is the default project system in Visual Studio; when you choose **File** > **New Project** in Visual C++ you're creating an MSBuild project whose settings are stored in an XML project file that has the extension *`.vcxproj`*. The project file may also import *`.props`* files and *`.targets`* files where settings can be stored.
 
-If you intend to maintain your project properties in the IDE, we recommend you only create and modify your *`.vcxproj`* projects in the IDE, and avoid manual editing as much as possible. In most cases, you never need to manually edit the project file. Manual edits may break the project connections required to modify project settings in the Visual Studio property pages, and can cause build errors that are difficult to debug and repair. For more information about using the property pages, see [Set C++ compiler and build properties in Visual Studio](../working-with-project-properties.md).

 At scale, managing many individual projects in the IDE becomes tedious and error-prone. It's hard to maintain consistency or enforce standardization across tens or hundreds of projects. In these cases, it's worthwhile to edit your project files to use customized *`.props`* or *`.targets`* files for common properties across many projects. You may also use these files when you require customizations that aren't possible in the IDE. Handy places to insert customizations are the *`Directory.Build.props`* and *`Directory.Build.targets`* files, which are automatically imported in all MSBuild-based projects.
