I am trying to create a new project, however, the error message reads: a project with this name already exists.

This is not visible by checking using Windows Explorer.

Reproducible: Always

A similar error was submitted, reporting this issue previously, however, I am not sure of the status of the issue, because I believe it was not replicated from your end.

The message does not say that there is such a folder on disk. I assume you either have a project with that name in your workspace (maybe it is closed).

If that's not the case then please attach your workspace and reopen the bug.

The weird issue is that no folder with that name exists.
