If you receive an error like "Error: DEP0600: The following unexpected error occurred during deployment: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Code\UnitConverter\bin\Debug\AppxManifest.xml'" during development/deployment of your Windows 8 App, you are not alone.
This simply means you copied the code for your app from one folder to another and are trying to run/deploy it from the new location now! Don't worry, the solution is very simple - just do a "clean solution" and then "rebuild solution" and you are on your way to run the app successfully.
Told you, it was simple :)
For your information, the full stack trace for the error would probably look like following:
