SiliconStudio.ExecServer process preventing deletion of game project directory

[MichaelAtHotkey]

I've found an issue with deleting game project directories. I should note my dev machine is Windows 10 and I'm using the 1.9.3-beta binary version of Xenko, in case that matters.

To reproduce:

1. Run your project from within Game Studio
2. Close Game Studio.
3. Go to your project's directory within Windows Explorer and attempt to delete it.

I get a message that the folder cannot be deleted because it is open in another program. Upon inspecting the running processes on my machine, I find that the process SiliconStudio.ExecServer is the culprit, as it is staying running in the background. Details reveal that this is from SiliconStudio.Assets.CompilerApp_ExecServer.exe.

This continues until I manually end the ExecServer process.

I've had this happen to me a few times as well.

this has also happened to me. Windows 10, Xenko 2.0.0.2

Thanks for the report. Our asset compiler process change working directory when a build start. What's missing is switching back to original directory when it's finished (we keep the process alive for some time so that next build starts faster)
