Thanks Windows

    VS in Mac and Windows doesn’t give itself permission to write to a build file it created because it’s on fat32 partition.
    Send help, please.

    Path length limit?
    Try RoboCopy

    Bring up and admin command prompt

    robocopy.exe c:\emptyfolder c:\deletethisfolder /purge

    File explorer doesnt give you an admin token for security reasons, I always use smb on another PC and access c$ (ie \\prodweb1\c$\inetpub). Has to done from another computer. Or use PowerShell or cmd as admin to do it
