Creating Visual Studio projects from Parallels

If you’re a Mac user forced back into the world of .NET, you might come across the following error message when creating a new Visual Studio project over Parallels:
Invalid URI: the hostname could not be parsed.
Chances are, you are trying to create the project in a directory that is inaccessible to Windows. In the New Project window, check out the Location field. If it contains psf://, you’re trying to save to the Parallels shared folder – a location Visual Studio apparently can’t handle. Change the location to somewhere on your C: drive, and you should be good to go.
