At the point where it is failing, open the build release directory from the
PB environment and try to copy over the top of some existing file that is
present. You might also check to see if you have an environment variable
which is setting non-standard XCOPY options, COPYCMD (maybe there's an
option set which is turning on the read-only attribute for all target files
and you are sourcing the same EXE or DLL file name both from the PUBLIC
branch and your own code -- a clone of something, maybe). Sorry I wasn't
more specific...
