Description

I have an msbuild project that is getting an error when creating a pdb file. How can I fix this? Thanks.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the build with config.bc and inspect the log in Out\Logs. The reported failure comes from MSBuild.exe invoking CL.exe for NtRegistrySupport_VS2019.vcxproj, which writes v:\code\win32\Debug\pdb\NtRegistrySupport_d.pdb. Done means determining why that PDB access is disallowed and achieving a successful build without DX0064 or DX0500.
