6.6.8 Moving, Copying or Renaming a Project
After you have created a project, you may realize you need to make changes. Using the commands on the context (right click) project menu, you can move, copy or rename your project from within MPLAB X IDE. There is also an option to delete the project. For details, see Project Menu under 14.24 Projects Window.
You can also use an external tool; the project file structure does not require you to use MPLAB X IDE.
