The solution includes a Setup Project that fails to build, causing the build process to be cancelled. This has worked previously without issues. To troubleshoot, the solution was tested on two other computers: one with Visual Studio 2019 and another with Visual Studio 2022, both of which built the solution successfully. The issue seems to be specific to one computer where a coworker with the same setup was able to build the solution. What could be the cause of this problem? Any advice would be appreciated. I am running Windows 11 with VS 2022 17.14.7.

Maybe its a permissions issue? Or something corrupted in the profile of the account with the issue?
Anything in the event log?
