Answer 1

I figured out this try this it worked for me.

In visual studio 2017 community edition it creates a project at this path "C:\Users\mark\source\repos\mipmaps\mipmaps" This will create a access to file is denied issue

Now, you can fix that this way.

close your visual studio process. Then, find your project and copy the project folder But, first make a Sub-folder Named Projects inside of your visual studio 2017 folder in documents. Next, paste the project folder inside of your visual studio 2017 Project folder not the main visual studio 2017 folder it should go into the Sub-folder called Projects. Next, restart Visual studio 2017 Then, choose Open project Solution Then, find your project you pasted in your visual studio 2017 Projects folder Then clean the Project and rebuild it , It, should build and compile just fine. Hope, this Helped out anybody else. Not to sure why Microsoft thought building your projects in a path where it needs write permissions is beyond me.
