.resources was specified more than once in the "Resources" parameter

Question

Hi! I'm getting this error, which apparently many developers face, but all solutions I get for it, is to delete the .resx file, which sure makes the program work but I don't know is a good idea or not. Please help:

"Error 1 The item "obj\x86\Debug\Quality_Control_Analysis.qualitycontrolanalysis.resources" was specified more than once in the "Resources" parameter.  Duplicate items are not supported by the "Resources" parameter."

There is only 1 such tag in my csproj file:

<EmbeddedResource Include="Quality Control Analysis.resx">

   <DependentUpon>Quality Control Analysis.cs</DependentUpon>

</EmbeddedResource>

But if I delete the Quality Control Analysis.resx file from VS 2010, or change the "Build Action" of "Quality Control Analysis.resx" from "Embedded Resource" to "None", the problem is gone. It's weird...what should I do?

Answer 1

Hi,

Similar issue was discussed at another post, you may want to have a read.

By the way, your question is out of support range of VS Debugger forum, you can try MSBuild forum for further support.

I already went through that post. Didn't helped me :(

What's the difference in VS Debugger and MSBuild? Can you kindly move my thread to the appropriate forum?
