CCS/CCSTUDIO: How to REMOVE the accidentally added CFG file requirement

Part Number: CCSTUDIO

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Many years ago, Robert W posted this question. It was NOT answered:

e2e.ti.com/.../236300

I have now done the same thing. In the properties, I clicked that RTSC SYS/BIOS and it stuffed a config file in the project.  Now I have "unclicked" the box, and removed the CFG file... But it continues to insist that there must be a CFG file.  And the associated XDC build will stuff it's code and libraries in there, which I do not want.

This is CCS 7.2

To say that once the CFG file have been accidentally added afterwards, it now has to remain there forever, is essentially saying the IDE has infested the project with a virus that can't be removed.  To say that all RTSC projects need a config file does not answer the question of how to make the project back into a NON-RTSC project.

The project was created without RTOS SYS/BIOS, and needs to be set back to that state.

How does one do that?

Buildfile generation error occurred..
This project does not contain a buildable RTSC Configuration (.cfg) file. In order for it to build, this project must contain one RTSC Configuration file that is not excluded from build.
Build stopped..

    Christopher,

    As far as I know, just enabling SYS/BIOS in the Project Properties->Products tab alone should not automatically add a .cfg file to the project. However, if a .cfg file is manually added to the project, CCS will prompt you about enabling RTSC/XDCtools support for the project and if you click "Yes", will proceed with converting it to a RTSC project.

    Once it is a RTSC project, unfortunately it is not possible to convert it to non-RTSC simply be removing the .cfg file (there is a FAQ about it here). Sorry for the inconvenience.
