What causes the "ConvertResourcesCases" failed unexpectedly?

did anyone facing this kind of problem too? It happened when I upgrade Xamarin to current version. Already check at xamarin forum, still zero answer. Thanks.

System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path 'obj\Debug\res\values\strings.xml' is denied. at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)

Delete the contents of obj folder inside project. Clean the build. Rebuild the project.

Now, everything should work fine. I had this problem once. It is due to the conflict in files that are created when you build the project
