Looks like your executables are still running

#

sour grove Feb 26, 2024, 7:06 AM

#

close visual studio

strong fern Feb 26, 2024, 7:06 AM

#

done

sour grove Feb 26, 2024, 7:06 AM

#

#

strong fern Feb 26, 2024, 7:06 AM

#

#

#

can you find that file and delete it?

strong fern Feb 26, 2024, 7:07 AM

#

after deleting it:

sour grove Feb 26, 2024, 7:08 AM

#

what file did you delete...

#

did you delete a project file, or the exe?

strong fern Feb 26, 2024, 7:08 AM

#

openGL.vcxproj

#

ohh xd

sour grove Feb 26, 2024, 7:08 AM

#

restore that file

strong fern Feb 26, 2024, 7:08 AM

#

you ment the exe

sour grove Feb 26, 2024, 7:08 AM

#

yup

strong fern Feb 26, 2024, 7:08 AM

#

lol

#

sry

#

now it works

#

it was because of one of my asus applications

#

...

sour grove Feb 26, 2024, 7:09 AM

#

which? 👀

strong fern Feb 26, 2024, 7:10 AM

#

uhm

sour grove Feb 26, 2024, 7:10 AM

#

but basically, it looks like something was holding on to the process handle and preventing writes to the file

#

(aka something was keeping it open)

#

Task Manager can kinda suck for finding these stray processes. I tend to reach for Resource Monitor. Not quite as user friendly, but more powerful imo

strong fern Feb 26, 2024, 7:33 AM

#

yea xd

#

i did just what you said: "Delete the exe". And the there was something strange like "It is still running as Axx.." and i opend taskmanager and searched for it

#

closed it and then i can del it

#

recreate it and done ^^

#

thanks

!solve
