Program.vshost.exe Error Preventing Running Program

3.8k Views Asked by At

I've been moving files around from my debug folder in an attempt to open the executable for my program from a different location. This seemed to have screwed things up, and I'd like to know how to fix them.

The exact error reads as follows:

"Visual Studio could not copy a support file to this location:\Program.vshost.exe'. Please verify the path exists and is writeable."

And ideas on how to fix this?
