In alpha 3 I get a "LINK ERROR: UNABLE TO OPEN FILE " and the project manifest file. This happens when the .src file is located not in the AppSrc folder but in a subfolder thereof.

If I manually copy it there from the Programs folder I can compile my project again.

Disable AV for your DF folder

But I want it to embed the manifest file.

It seems to me to be a problem of handling when .src is not located directly in the AppSrc folder.

I can fix it by copying the manifest file from the Progams folder to the folder of the .src. But I would expect this to work regardless.

Hi Sture

Maybe I have not understood your problem, but I think the Studio should do the following

If Embed Manifest File is enabled then the Studio should move the manifest file to the folder that has the .SRC - it is now source code

If Embed Manifest File is NOT enabled then the Studio should move the manifest file to the programs folder - it is now a deployable file

100%

This is what I would expect.

I think I agree as well. We will check it out.
