Building Map creates an "Error.error" file

Unexpectedly, when I select "build" prior to running my map and anytime thereafter executing the map, an "Error.error" file is created. If deleted, it comes back. The file contains one line, "File not found: C:\project\maps\test\Error.error ." It doesn't seem to impact the mapping project in anyway but gets created every time. The initial thought it was workspace related but it is not. Below are some points that might help. Any thoughts/suggestions are welcome. 1) It is created on build or execution thereafter, even if the file is deleted. 2) If I copy the map, related type tree and input to another project within the same workspace it doesn't happen. 3) Deleting and recreating the project folder and copying the files back in still creates the Error.error file. 4) The file doesn't seem to impact the input, processing, or end results.

Further research, I think this may be a Windows issue even though it appeared while developing and testing WTX maps. If someone happens to know the fix it would help. I will post a follow up fix if I find one.

I was able to resolve this issue by running the command prompt with Admin Rights. I could not delete the file directly from there, but I could delete the directory in which it resided using this command: "rd /S". There after, I deleted the remaining project and files and rebooted to clean it up. I recreated the project after rebooting and remigrated my code and the issue was gone.
