Works here. If the folder is removed the "save as" dialog is shown when 
trying to save a file. Also tried on a project, no problem.

Ok, I get this error a lot.

Do this:

Create a new VD project. Drag and drop some library files 
hierarchy stuff from some project or create a bunch of folders 
and dummy d files in Windows explorer(not in Visual studio, as 
the folders are not true folders).

Once you have some hierarchy created, drag the root folder in to 
the VD project solution. It should pop all the files in their.

Open up all the d files. Make some changes(dummy space) in some, 
rename some folders and files inside VS, rename some folders and 
files to different stuff in windows explorer(or whatever file 
manager you use). Try to build.

Keep on doing this for about 1-5 mins. You should eventually end 
up with something that causes an insufficient memory problem and 
then everything you try to do after will produce that error and 
you'll have to kill VS.

I get it when I keep a d file open in VS but remove it inside VS 
or the directory it contains inside the solutions project.


If you can't duplicate it I'll create a dummy project that should 
do it. It is somewhat random though.


Also, can you add a DMD, GDC, LDC project type. I always have to 
add one or the other manually.
