SSIS Project will not show a new folder added

I created a folder called BatchFiles in TFS for an SSIS project, but the folder will not show in the solution explorer. I've also noticed that .dtproj file will not show, even if I click the "Show All Files" button on top. Is there any way to show the new folder I created in solution explorer? Also will the .dtproj file always be hidden?

enter image description here

Add new item directly to the project does this: enter image description here

Adding an existing item option automatically dumped it in Miscellaneous Folder, that looks like this: enter image description here

Seems like those existing items are not being considered as project files but as misc files when being opened from solution explorer.

This seems to be an expected behavior

Any files in the dialogue box which does not have extension such as dtsx or config .Selecting these files will automatically place them in Miscellaneous folder

How to Add a File to the SSIS Project Miscellaneous Folder

If the file exists on disk (physically in the folder) but does not show in the solution then it is likely that the file was checked in, but the modification to the solution was not. And for BatchFiles folder, you just add them in the source control explorer. That's why there are not the in the solution explorer.

Also will the .dtproj file always be hidden?

Seems to be so. I have also reproduced and got the same behavior like this. Sorry, not very familiar with SSIS project. But according to some tutorials in google such as this Blog : Building your SSIS project in Azure DevOps It not appears, but we also able to build it through Azure DevOps.
