NOTE: This information has not been confirmed by Microsoft. The information
in this article is provided as-is and is subject to change without notice.
In some cases, when you use the Stop Build command while you are building a
project, files that are created by the build process are corrupted. Some of
the problems reported to Microsoft, but unconfirmed, include zero-sized
output files (PDB, BSC, OBJ, etc.) and possible loss of data in project
source files.
RESOLUTION
This problem is difficult to reproduce, and occurs very rarely. However, it
is always a good idea to maintain a backup of your project to be safe.
STATUS
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
