Resource View in Visual Studio

I wrote a program and compiled it successfully, checked the exe file also. When i restarted visual studio; and wanted to open output file from resource view in visual studio; it gave an error "opened in another editor" . there is no such editor. i restarted my laptop too but it doesnt work – "OPENED IN ANOTHER EDITOR" error is under the resource view in Visual Studio. Instead of the .rc files under resource view, that error is appearing under resource view tab. I have closed all the windows also.

On the CodeProject board I've found a variant with deleting .aps file, what perfectly worked in my case. Looks like the problem is in service files indeed.

You probably have the .rc or Resource.h file opened in text mode in another tab. Close all source windows and try again.
