I was able to figure out a solution on my own. I guess Experts Exchange does not have solutions for all kinds of problems.

Hi,<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; I am creating a Setup and Deployment project using Visual Studio 2010 Professional. <br />
<br />
During build time, I get the same error multiple times for different files <b>Unable to build file named 'file_name'.<br />
</b><br />
<br />
All I'm doing is setting up certain files to be copied to the destination (preserving the folder structure).<br />
<br />
I looked around and found some solutions which obviously did not help.<br />
<br />
I have a total of 15,400 files in a sub folder structure. <br />
<br />
I tried to set the build properties to <br />
<br />
1. as loose uncompressed files<br />
2. in setup file<br />
3. in cabinet files (100 MB)<br />
<br />
but all of them fail with the same above error. <br />
<br />
Please help!<br />
<br />
EDIT: I found some references to maybe having a hash or a version for each file. I'm not sure how to check if this is already enabled or the process on how to enable it.
