Build fails after 2 times build of the application in flutter

Question

After building my flutter application in VS code, I successfully run the app, everything works fine. But after 2 or more times of restart of the application, whenever I run my code again, the build gets failed. This is the error pops up.

Target debug_android_application failed: FileSystemException: Cannot copy file to 'J:\flutter_projects\webdoc\build\app\intermediates\flutter\debug\flutter_assets\assets\images\background.png', path = 'J:\flutter_projects\webdoc\assets\images\background.png' (OS Error: Access is denied.
, errno = 5)
build failed.

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

Script 'C:\src\flutter\packages\flutter_tools\gradle\flutter.gradle' line: 780

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app:compileFlutterBuildDebug'.

Running Gradle task 'assembleDebug'...
Running Gradle task 'assembleDebug'... Done                        10.2s
Gradle task assembleDebug failed with exit code 1

When first time this error has occured, I cut all the files from the current directory and copied into other directory, and then it works again fine. But even now after running 2 or 3 times again the error pops up. Is there any fix available to this problem?

I tried deleting the .vscode, rebuilding again, but still its the same!!

It seems to be a file permissions related issue. try to copy the files using command line. you shall receive similar error.

copy J:\flutter_projects\webdoc\assets\images\background.png J:\flutter_projects\webdoc\build\app\intermediates\flutter\debug\flutter_assets\assets\images\background.png

Now check if you have necessary permissions on the destination directory/file or the destination file/directory is not read only.

Stop running your application clear all recents applications then try again.

If this do not work try unistall your application, reinstall applications.

If these also not works , run 'flutter clean' then 'flutter pub get' .

These will clear temp files and add only neccessary files.
