    I would like to delete an existing project so that I can recreate it. After an attempt to update Qt Creator to the latest version (which encountered errors that resulted in it deleting itself, so I have to reinstall it fresh), my old project configuration is messed up to the point I would like to delete it and recreate it. Where can I find the .pro file so that I can start over by opening my CMakeList.txt file?

      Hi,
      Right click on project .pro and click Show in Explorer . Or in the recent project your project path is displayed.
      I think you can open project in QtCreator? right

        @TobbY I can't find any .pro anywhere. I'm using a CMakeLists.txt file. Does that substitute for it?

          Hi.
          I think you dont have .pro file. Qt using CMakeLists.txt for opening project.

            Hi,

            IIRC, you can find a CMakeLists.txt.user file in your project folder. You can delete it and it should trigger the configuration the next time you open it.
