 ## Advanced Properties
 
 - **Target File Extension**
 
-   Specifies the file extension to use for the build output. Defaults to **.exe** for applications, **.lib** for static libraries and **.dll** for DLLs.

 - **Extensions to Delete on Clean**
 
-   The **Clean** option (**Build** menu) deletes files from the intermediate directory where a project's configuration is built. Files with extensions specified with this property will be deleted when **Clean** is run or when you perform a rebuild. In addition to files of these extensions in the intermediate directory, the build system will also delete any known output of the build regardless of where it is located (including intermediate outputs such as .obj files). Note that you can specify wildcard characters.

It also deletes any known output of the build, no matter where it's located. (That includes the intermediate outputs such as *`.obj`* files.) You can specify wildcard characters in this property.

 - **Build Log File**
 
-   Allows you to specify a non-default location for the log file that is created whenever you build a project. The default location is specified by the macros $(IntDir)$(MSBuildProjectName).log.

+   Enables a faster build process that combines many C++ source files into one or more files before compilation. These combined files are known as *unity* files. They're unrelated to the Unity game engine.

+- **Copy Content to OutDir**
+
+   Copy the items marked as *content* in the project to the project's output directory (`$(OutDir)`). This setting can simplify deployment. This property is available starting in Visual Studio 2019 version 16.7.
+
+- **Copy Project References to OutDir**
+
+   Copy the executable (DLL and EXE file) project reference items to the project's output directory (`$(OutDir)`). In C++/CLI ([`/clr`](clr-common-language-runtime-compilation.md)) projects, this property is ignored. Instead, the **Copy Local** property on each project reference controls whether it's copied to the output directory. This setting can simplify local deployment. It's available starting in Visual Studio 2019 version 16.7.
+
+- **Copy Project References' Symbols to OutDir**
+
+   Copy the PDB files for project reference items along with the project reference executable items to the project's output directory (`$(OutDir)`). This property is always enabled for C++/CLI projects. This setting can simplify debug deployment. It's available starting in Visual Studio 2019 version 16.7.

+- **Copy C++ Runtime to OutDir**
+
+   Copy the runtime DLLs to the project's output directory (`$(OutDir)`). This setting can simplify local deployment. It's available starting in Visual Studio 2019 version 16.7.
