Suppress warnings in pre-build validation step of a setup project

0.00/5 (No votes)

Hi,

I am using Visual Studio (several versions) to create MSI packages, using a Setup project.

I am getting tons of "WARNING: File '...' should not be installed into a User's Profile folder because it may not be available to all users" because I am storing files in the User's Personal Data Folder.

This is on purpose and I just want to suppress the warnings as they really slow down operation of the IDE. I don't want to move the files elsewhere.

I have browsed and read several posts on the topic, but found no solution. I convinced myself that there is no 'official' way to achieve that.

But maybe someone knows a workaround ?
