Error: EPERM: operation not permitted, open "C"

Question

I am getting following error while running a build definition.

I tried to give read/write permission by right clicking the Builds directory, but after running the build using build definition the permissions get reset.

The files get created by calling "gulp" command from a post script bat file. How to get rid of this error?

Not so familiar with gulp command . Did you need to run `npm install` in the script or in the build agent? — PatrickLu-MSFT, Jan 25 '16 at 09:43

I was wondering if it's related to the npm install issue. Please refer this npm install fails on Windows with "EPERM, operation not permitted" for more details.

Here is also a similar question Visual Studio 2015 hybrid app - getting "EPERM, operation not permitted"
