Labview Build Unsuccessful

Technical NI LabVIEW
1

I am trying to compile my code in labview, and when I click build, the window that pops ups says this:

LabVIEW prevented a file name collision during the build. Duplicate file names cannot be copied to the same destination. You can rename files as part of the build process to avoid name conflicts.

Then later it says:
The Build was unsuccessful.
Possible Reasons:
An error occurred while saving the following file:

C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.5\vi.lib\Robotics Library\NIFPGAInterface\AnalogTrigger\WriteConfiguration.vi

Invoke Node in AB_Source_VI.lvclass:Close_Reference.vi->AB_Build.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi->AB_Application.lvclass:Copy_Files.vi->AB_Build.lvclass:Build.vi->AB_RTEXE.lvclass:Build.vi->AB_Build.lvclass:Build_from_Wizard.vi->AB_UI_FRAMEWORK.vi->AB_Item_OnDoProperties.vi->AB_Item_OnDoProperties.vi.ProxyCaller
<APPEND>
Method Name: <b>Save:Target Instrument</b>

Also, if I just try to run the program with the little arrow button, it cannot connect to the real time device.

I just updated all of the components, from the Driver Station to the cRio to Labview, and now these errors are happening.
I am using the exact same code that I was using an hour ago, and it worked then.

Thanks for any help, guys!

As a diagnostic, can you comment out the calls to the analog trigger and see if that allows for an interactive run as well as a build? Alternatively, you may just want to send all of your code into email support and we’ll do the subsetting to see what library or what VIs are having issues being built.

Here’s something to try: Right click on the build specification and select Properties. Go to the “Additional Exclusions” category and make sure that “Modify project library after removing unused members” is not checked

Ok, so I found out that the errors that I was having before were related to the new update. It was applied incorrectly.

However, now it is applied right, and I can get the code to work with a soft run (the arrow like on the front panel.)

I cannot get it to build, however.

When I try, I get these errors:

“LabVIEW prevented a file name collision during the build. Duplicate file names cannot be copied to the same destination. You can rename files as part of the build process to avoid name conflicts.”

"The Build was unsuccessful. Possible reasons:

An error occurred while saving the following file:

And in the details pane, I get this:

"Visit the Request Support page at ni.com/ask to learn more about resolving this problem. Use the following information as a reference:
