When I try to build an EXE for my game I get the following error:
Unable to set EXE name/description: Unable to replace resource: EndUpdateResource for 00000001 failed: 0000006E
What's going on here?
I am not sure what that error specifically means, but usually if the file is considered in use, AGS Editor cannot access it, in this case the exe of your game (the editor copies acwin.exe and customizes it as your game).
If you have the game open, or sometimes just leaving the Windows Explorer with the Compiled/Windows directory opened in it, and other similar types of access to the exe in that directory may hang when you tell AGS Editor to build the exe.
Ah, sometimes Antivirus software may also cause the issue since they see a new executable and will try to access it for scanning.
Thank you, I knew the file wasn't in use but I did have the output folder opened in File Explorer, closing that solved the issue.
