Hello @STuser2 

First let me thank you for posting.

The launch file take it's name from the debug Debug Session name:

Also to delete the launch file you just delete the debug configuration having the same name.

Haven't seen any automatic delete on renaming. In fact, one can have several launch files for different configurations, so there is not necessarily a 1:1 relation between .lauch name(s) and project name.
