+description: Learn about the breaking change in the .NET SDK where the CLI command 'dotnet sln add' adds support for .slnx solution files and no longer allows invalid file names.

+# `dotnet sln add` no longer allows invalid file names
+
+Starting in .NET SDK 9.0.2xx, the [`dotnet sln add`](../../../tools/dotnet-sln.md#add) CLI command includes support for *.slnx* solution files using the [vs-solutionpersistence](https://github.com/microsoft/vs-solutionpersistence) serializer. As a result, slight changes in behavior are expected.
+
+## Version introduced
+
+.NET SDK 9.0.2xx
+
+## Previous behavior
+
+Previously, projects and solution folders could have invalid Windows file names. They could also have invalid characters in their names. In addition, `dotnet sln add` failed if you attempted to add a nested project with the same name as an existing project.
+
+## New behavior
+
+Starting in .NET SDK 9.0.2xx, projects and solution folder names:
+
+- Can't be a DOS word: `NUL`, `CON`, `AUX`, `PRN`, `COM?`, `LPT?`, or `CLOCK$` (where `?` is any number of digits).
+- Must be 260 characters or less.
+- Can't contain invalid characters, such as control characters or `?`, `:`, `\`, `/`, `*`, `"`, `"`, `<`, `>`, and `|`.
+
+In addition, `dotnet sln add` now succeeds if you attempt to add a nested project with the same name as an existing project, which mimics the behavior for non-nested projects. Example: Adding `folder/project.csproj` and `parent/child/project.csproj` doesn't result in an error.
+
+Exceptions contain the current strings, but wrap error messages from [vs-solutionpersistence](https://github.com/microsoft/vs-solutionpersistence).
+
+## Type of breaking change
+
+This change is a [behavioral change](../../categories.md#behavioral-change).
+
+## Reason for change
+
+These changes were introduced to transition to the new `vs-solutionpersistence` serializer.
+
+## Recommended action
+
+Review project and solution folders names to ensure they comply with the new naming restrictions.
+
+## Affected APIs
+
