See more:

Unable to copy file "obj\Debug\.exe" to "bin\Debug\.exe". The process cannot access the file 'bin\Debug\.exe' because it is being used by another process.

Please help!

I have opened the task manager and I have ended the process but the same error appears.

I am using a window application.

Thanks in Advance:rose::rose::thumbsup:

Always clear your temp folder for cache and temporary files that may create problem.

Solution 7

So i had the following problem when trying to compile my solution an error occured “Error 1 Unable to copy file “obj\…\Debug\…exe to bin\Debug\…exe the process cannot acces the file because it is used by another process. After about many hours of searching for solutions for that problem i have tried about many fixes but none of them worked for me.But after a while of searching in the internet i saw discussion about it and some one suggested that the problem is not form VS but from Win 7 security and it is associated with the application experience.So i checked it out and it worked like magic.Everything was fixed.

So if u have the problem My computer > manage > Service & Application > Services >Application experience ( set it to automatic and restart it ). Hope this helps some one cause this is pretty much discussed over the internet.

Try to close down VS completely and start it up again. If that doesn't work, you need to restart your development computer...

hey thanks i got it

This is a troublesome bug in VS2010. What I'll do is, close all the edited/opened files, then build the solution. It'll work. Else, I'll have 2 debugging modes "Debug" and "Debug-xml". If I get this in "Debug" mode then I'll change the mode to "Debug-xml" and build and run. If any other those didn't help. Then, as Jhonny said I'll re-start the VS.

It's not only VS2010 - I think they must have ported the bug from VS 2008, because it exists there too... :-)

i am using VS2008 and i was facing this problem because of auto generate sequence number code.

Your app isn't shutting down correctly. It's not a bug in the IDE - at least not that I've ever experienced.

Solution 1

It's happening because you'r currently running the application (or it didn't shutdown completely the last time you tested it).

Go into task manager, and shut it down manually if you don't have a taskbar icon.
