Hi, I have encountered a strange problem.

Visual Studio 2022 cannot compile files in the file system of virtiofs. But Explorer can read and write normally and works very well.

Thanks.

Hi @luozhiya,

Thanks for reporting. This is a known issue. Probably, the problem is the file creation time absence in FUSE and virtiofsd.

[YanVugenfirer]

Hi @luozhiya, which language are you compiling in Visual Studio?

[luozhiya]

Hi @YanVugenfirer

I am using C++ and created the Console App project through VS's templates.
