Resolution Denied Errors with Visual Studio 2008 under Vista

I did a dive and upgraded (or maybe downgraded!) From WinXP to Vista.

Everything seems to work fine, except that when I opened my machine in the morning and opened my C # application in Visual Studio, I got a few "Load of property" OutputPaths. "The path entered is not a valid exit" error.

I tried to rebuild the application and found that for some mysterious reason I lost access to the executables that Visual Studio creates. Everything else in the solution was still mine, but there was no compilation output. In some cases, "Administrator" was owned by them, and in some cases I was still owned by them, but I had no rights.

I work as an administrator, so there is more than a little frenzy about denying access to my own files that I created myself.

Am I missing something about the way Visual Studio and Vista play together, or am I wiping the machine down and recording for two more days, reinstalling WinXP?

Upstairs:

  • Disable user access control.
  • Make sure you haven't checked your executables in the original control (they may be read-only) :)


EDIT: I had several problems with my Vista x64 box which confused me too [I also worked as an administrator]. Disabling UAC got rid of that "Administrator", but there was no problem with the administrator: D

Open the .csproj file and make sure your output path C: \ test \ is correct, which is another place to test.

Oh .. that's cool = D

Have you tried changing the output path?

Ok, right click on your project in the "solution browser". Go to Properties, Build tab. There you can try to do something.

VS2008 is a very strange thing as it was designed to run on Vista! = D

Good luck!
