How do I change the default model in Visual Studio?

When I create a model, there's a checkbox to make it the default model. How do I change the default model at another time so I don't keep having to reset it after each solution is created?

    If there isn't any better way, you can go to the config file under {you documents}\Visual Studio 2015\Settings\ and change the value of DefaultModelForNewProjects.

    Lets say you have created a ModelA made it default, wizard would create a project with a new solution or you can choose existing one. Then you have created ModelB without making it default but with a new solution. Now in second case if we add a new item it'll be added to ModelB although it wasn't made default.

    Make it default checkbox has significance in case of solutions with multiple projects which belongs to different models.
