Hello,
I've done several projects using Keil uVision 5, and I noticed in the project folders there is no main.c file. The only reference to main is in the Objects folder where I can see the main.o, main.d and main.crf. If I open the project file XYZ.uvprojx as an example, the project opens up and I can see the main file. Is there a way I can make the main.c file visible or is it already located somewhere?
The files are wherever you put them.

Where were you looking - in the uVision 'Project' view, or the Windows file explorer?
Note that the "Groups" in the uVision 'Project' view don't necessarily correspond to Windows filesystem folders ...
If you right-click a file in the uVision 'Project' view, then choose 'Options' - it will show you the filesystem path to the file:
EDIT: Also, if you have the file open in the uVision editor, right-clicking its Tab gives you options to get its full path, and to see it in the Windows file explorer:

I don't follow: you said you can see it - so it must be visible ?
Please clarify.
Sorry, if I wasn't clear enough, but you've answered my question with your image. I guess my main files were being referenced in another location when checking the options. Thank you.

Yes - the "Groups" in the uVision 'Project' view don't necessarily correspond to Windows filesystem folders
I think this is not uncommon with IDEs ... ?
