As soon as when i try build my project unexpectedly even without any syntax errors it is still showing this following error

Warning 2 Could not copy "obj\Debug\TMSRU.exe" to "bin\Debug\SampleProject.exe". Beginning retry 2 in 1000ms. The process cannot access the file 'bin\Debug\SampleProject.exe' because it is being used by another process. SampleProject

for this error i have google it for solution from few blogs i got to know that visual as locked the project from executing it....then i changed the debug mode setting from debug to release then the project started as working normally without showing any errors ... now ,my question is how to get rid of this error permanently is there any alternate solution.. for this.. please tell me

It sounds like exe keeps running even after you stop debug, can you see it in task manager?you can kill this process(SampleProject.exe) or you can close and open visual studio, I don't think it will give the same error again..
