Visual Studio 2010, in my project I made a custom build step which renames a dll file and copies it to other folder. So, Alt+F7, Config props, Custom Build Step / General, command line:
copy /y $(TargetPath) $(TargetName).node
It didn't do anything. Then I also added
ping bat.femei.ro -n 1 -w 5000
It still didn't do anything. It simply flashed a command prompt window for a split second then the window went away. I googled as much as I could concluding that there might be a problem with the folder where the batch file is generated.
I did my best to screenshot that split second with the command prompt and after a boring F7-PrintScreen-PasteInPaint session finally I got
C:\Users\FURAT\AppData\Local\Temp\blablablablablablablablabla.exec.cmd is not recognized as internal or external...
I double checked the directory. It has Everyone permissions set to Allow both Read & Write operations. What's wrong? How do I fix this?
I was unable to find any knobs to tweak temp folder path. It's not Env and it's not in the config either.
What did work however was running VS2010 as Administrator. Now the Custom Build Step works.
