Using debug I can run my project only one time. After that every time I get error:
cannot open output file debug\trud1.exe: Permission denied error:
ld returned 1 exit status
I close running Qt projects but seems like I can not close this one even via task manager (theres no tasks trud1.exe).
Explorer does not let me delete trud1.exe because it is used by my "System" (i can not kill this process).
Restarting Qt does not help me, only restarting computer does.
Please help me solve my problem.
This happens because you have to close the program you've launched before.
Look it isn't running on background.

This is my first project with Visual Studio Code. When i go to run my "Hello World" project I get this
cd "c:\Users\imaco\Desktop\Cpppractice" && g++ main.cpp -o main && "c:\Users\imaco\Desktop\Cpppractice"main
c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/9.2.0/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot open output file main.exe: Permission denied
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status
my code reads
1 #include <iostream>
2
3
4
5 int main()
6 {
7 std:: cout << "Hello World!";
8 }
-I've made sure it isn't running in the background.
-I've closed and reopened the program and ran the code again with same results.
-I've allowed it as an exception in Bit Defender.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
I need 50 reputation to comment, otherwise I would have added a comment. I ran into this issue myself and I solved it using this. However, it worked for me:
"cannot open output file main.exe: Permission denied collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status"
It says that the permission has been denied. This probably means that you have not given execute access to visual studio in a certain folder or the file has execute restrictions. You could probably be storing this file in a folder that has restricted access. There are a couple of options:
You could probably move it to a new folder that does not have any execute access restrictions.
You may have have to change the permission of that folder/file to read, write and execute using admin privileges.
If this does not work, let me know in the comments section, because I faced the same issue of permission denied.
One of the reasons for this error is that your firewall is blocking "collect2.exe" file. In some cases the firewall is disconnected so you might need to connect with it. Hope it helps !
Try to open terminal (Ctrl + `) and type:
g++ main.cpp then
.\a.exe
(assuming the terminal opens up in your working directory)
This usually happens when VS decides to keep a chunk of code running as a separate entity in the background. A way to fix this is that since you are on Windows, I would right-click the taskbar and click on task manager. This will open up all the tasks that are currently running on the computer. Then, search for "Windows console host." You can change the sorting of the list. Once you find it you can click on it and then at the bottom right it will have an "End Task" available for you to click. Click that and then retry again.
You should be good after that, but let me know if you are still having issues.
when this occurs i usually just remove the exe file and build again
In C++Builder 10.3.3, when running my application, it stops the process and pops up with an error:
Unable to create process: Access denied
I don't know why this happens, and for the life of me I can't figure out what it is talking about.
I tried to build the solution to see if the error was occurring there, and it appears this is the case. After building the solution, the compiler stops the process and a fatal error pops up:
[ilink32 Error] Fatal: Could not open.\Win32\Debug\TabbedApplication.exe (program still running?)
Does anyone know what this error means, and how to fix it?
I added a new target platform in my project in the right
I added windows 64 bit and it worked
hope it helps
I've been getting this messages for months (even with previous verions of RAD studio) and i haven't found a solution yet.
I have used a process explorer and the process is not running but if i close and reopen the IDE the file is not locked anymore.
So i think the problem it's related with the "debugger" that stills is locking the file even when the IDE stopped the debugging process.
I have tried even the "unlocker" utility but it doesn't detect any process is locking the file ...
For know we have to wait until the debugger release the file.
These is the configuration i have tried in the registry:
HKCU\Software\Embarcadero\BDS\20.0\Debugging\Embarcadero Debuggers\Evaluators
[dedfault] REG_SZ dcc32260.dll
com32x.dll REG_SZ -1
dcc32260.dll REG_SZ 0
I have qt project but if I edit my code, Qt creator throws out this error
:-1: error: LNK1168: cannot open debug\GettingStarted.exe for writing
I'm not able even to delete the debug folder (i.e. as an administrator). I have to log off and then come back. What is the problem and how can I solve it?
Go to the task manager Ctrl+Alt+Del.
look for the name of your running application in your case GettingStarted.exe.
right click --> end process or just press Suppr . This will kill the running process.
Go back to your code and run the application again
In my simple case (Qt only, no external libs, same error LNK1168) the Task manager showed nothing useful to kill.
Only total reboot has helped and error is gone.
All the methods mentioned here has not helped except reboot. There is no any ProjectName.exe in Task Manager.
You can go to C:\Users\user-name\source\repos\ProjectName\Debug\ folder and rename ProjectName.exe. You can't delete this file at that time, but It can be renamed. It can only be deleted after reboot.
I know this is an old thread but I was stumbling in the same problem also. Finding it in task manager is tricky, and I started to grow tired of having to restart my PC every time this happened.
A solution would be to download Process Explorer and there you can search for running tasks. In my case I was having the following error:
1>LINK : fatal error LNK1168: cannot open C:Out\Build\VS12_app\Debug\platform_test.exe for writing [C:Build\VS12_app\platform_test.vcxproj]
I searched for C:Out\Build\VS12_app\Debug\platform_test.exe in Process Explorer, killed it and I was able to compile.
I'm trying to compile my C++ program, but when I press the "Build" button, it displays the following error message:
c:/gnat/2010/bin/../libexec/gcc/i686-pc-mingw32/4.3.6/ld.exe:
cannot open output file a.exe: Invalid
argument collect2: ld returned 1 exit
status
This is not the first time it has done this. It seems to do this most when I have been editing the same project a lot and building it often, almost as if something has been flooded, or overloaded, or something.
I had fixed it before, I believe, by restarting my PC, but I can't afford to keep restarting my PC every time this occurs.
I thought this was just a one-time problem, but it has continued to happen and so I thought I'd look for more help on this.
I found another SO question that I thought had the same error message/problem as I had. However, when I tried the solutions listed on afore-linked question, nothing helped.
Has anyone else had this issue? Or does anyone know how I can fix this issue (besides restarting my computer every time)?
I am developing in jGrasp also, if that helps any.
EDIT: I just wanted to add that I thought it might be that my previous executable was still running in the background, but even if I close my IDE, it still won't let me delete the executable, because it says it is still running.
I checked my process explorer to see if the a.exe was still running, but there's absolutely nothing in my processes that has to do with jGrasp or a.exe
I guess your executable is still running. It's the only reason I think about... I guess the best is to check on your task manager (process Explorer is your friend ;)).
In Visual Studio Code, go to Settings -> Search for "clear previous" in the search bar and check on the box named "clear previous output". :)
It is happening because your previous output is already running in the background. And VS Code offers a feature to close that on every run.
EDIT: it's nothing to do with collect2.exe.
Do you get any other error text, like for example 'permission denied errors' etc.

It is beacause the .exe is still running. If you're on Windows use the command line del -f a.exe and if you're on linux use rm -rf ./a.out
I have the same problem, was worried for hours. I disabled my avg antivirus and it worked.
I compile a Qt program with C++, and I got this error message:
cannot open output file debug\serbest.exe: Permission denied
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
What are these command's meaning?
How do I get rid of these errors?
Most likely cause: serbest.exe is still running. Check with TaskManager.
It says the current user is not having enough right to write onto the debug folder. Check whether you can create a new file in the folder as referred to.
run your compiler software as admin. choose your compiler on start menu > right click and run as admin. you wil not probably see any permission denied errors.
Sometimes this error caused because of your antivirus added this file in the limited group.
This helped me!
