I am trying to build a solution that fails with the PostBuildEvent:

XCOPY /Y "$(BuiltOuputPath)" "\LOCALHOST_INSTALL"

It gives the error:

Starting post-build events…

Invalid drive specification

0 File(s) copied

I can access \LOCALHOST but it’s empty and I can’t create the folder _INSTALL. Is \LOCALHOST some kind of local network folder or how is it used?

    \\Localhost is the name of your machine. _INSTALL would be a share located on your machine.

    You would need to share a folder out and give it the share name of _INSTALL ensuring you apply the relevant permissions to the share.
