System Error &H80070714& - What!?

When I try to compile my project, VB gives me this error:

Error 1 Unable to write to output file 'C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Application\Application\obj\Release\Application.exe': System Error &H80070714&

All forms and files load normally, and no errors are to be seen.

I have never seen this error before. How do I work around

  • FallenKing

    In the build menu try to clean. Then rebuild.


  • Nimrod_

    OK - I found the error.

    It seems that I was using an icon, containing size up to 256x256 Vista format.

    VB.NET simply can't handle Vista-ready icons.
