Disable warnings for specific files in Visual Studio

I have some files in my C# WPF project with Build Action set to Content. But these files don't contain C# code. Unfortunatelly, these files generates a lot of Warnings in Error List. How can I set these non-C# files to be ignored in "VS Warnig Analyzer"? I tried use Exclude from StyleCop, but warnings are still here...

Example warnings (there are 1623 warnings for a single .pak file):

Warning 498 Attribute ' C:\Users\Dominik\Projects\slidessync\SlidesSync\SlidesSync\cef.pak  41526   1   SlidesDrive.Windows
Warning 514 Attribute ' C:\Users\Dominik\Projects\slidessync\SlidesSync\SlidesSync\cef.pak  41472   17  SlidesDrive.Windows
Warning 538 Attribute ' C:\Users\Dominik\Projects\slidessync\SlidesSync\SlidesSync\cef.pak  41224   1   SlidesDrive.Windows
Warning 548 Attribute ' C:\Users\Dominik\Projects\slidessync\SlidesSync\SlidesSync\cef.pak  41194   1   SlidesDrive.Windows
Warning 549 Attribute ' C:\Users\Dominik\Projects\slidessync\SlidesSync\SlidesSync\cef.pak  41196   1   SlidesDrive.Windows
Warning 126 Attribute '�' already exists.   C:\Users\Dominik\Projects\slidessync\SlidesSync\SlidesSync\cef.pak  41208   1   SlidesDrive.Windows
Warning 132 Attribute '�' already exists.   C:\Users\Dominik\Projects\slidessync\SlidesSync\SlidesSync\cef.pak  41213   1071    SlidesDrive.Windows
Warning 210 Attribute '�' already exists.   C:\Users\Dominik\Projects\slidessync\SlidesSync\SlidesSync\cef.pak  41911   1   SlidesDrive.Windows
Warning 211 Attribute '�' already exists.   C:\Users\Dominik\Projects\slidessync\SlidesSync\SlidesSync\cef.pak  41912   87  SlidesDrive.Windows
Warning 222 Attribute '�' already exists.   C:\Users\Dominik\Projects\slidessync\SlidesSync\SlidesSync\cef.pak  41925   1   SlidesDrive.Windows

I had an html file giving 100 warnings that I couldn't change. I was copying it to the output folder and loading the file using code. I updated my project to mark the file as an embedded resource and that made the warnings go away.

Late, but the most obvious is to place in the top of the file

#pragma warning disable warning-list

It seems to me these files are XML files, or another file type that Visual Studio recognizes. Visual Studio tries to check them if you open them (they don't have a compile time impact on warnings / errors). You can close them and the warnings will be gone.

You should probably:

  • Fix the issues if you can: double attributes are a bad idea. Use elements instead.
  • For XML: Add the XSD to Visual Studio to let Visual Studio correctly validate the XML file.
