| 10 | +The following files are created when you create an ATL project in Visual Studio, depending on the options you select for the project you create. The file names depend on the name you choose for your project, which we'll call *`ProjectName`*. |

|
12 | | -All of these files are located in the *Projname* directory, and in either the Header Files (.h files) folder or Source Files (.cpp files) folder in Solution Explorer. |
| 12 | +All of the files created by the project template are located in the *`ProjectName`* and *`ProjectNamePS`* project directories. In Solution Explorer, the *`ProjectName`* files are located in the **Generated Files**, **Header Files**, **Resource Files**, and **Source Files** folders. The *`ProjectNamePS`* files are in the **Generated Files** and **Source Files** folders. Not all files listed here are generated for every project type. Files in the **Generated Files** folder are generated automatically by the MIDL compiler; they shouldn't be edited directly. |
