"Cannot open output file"

<< < (3/3)

Well, I'll post a conjecture.

You can't write to the binary file of a program as long as the program is running, even as administrator. You've already suspected something like that.
I remember that one of the tools of the "Sysinternals Suite" could observe and log if a file has been opened by a process and if it is still open. Perhaps it is
the "Process Monitor". I don't remember exactly and I don't have a Windows System at hand now to check it.

Try to find out which process keeps your "First Example.exe" open and you should be one step towards a solution.

In spite of that turning on full compiler logging and posting the output should also do no harm  ;D

You may grab the "Sysinternals Suite" from here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb842062.aspx

You can Crtl+C your script and then, make a same project with the same title in the same file. That way, most of the times, you will get rid of your error and not erase the code, but sometimes, the code could be turned into the preview(code that is always made), so you would need to Ctrl+C it.
Please understand if my English is bad. I'm a Korean...
