Swagger | Access to folder XXXX is denied | XML Documentation

I am using Swagger for API documentation (My application is to be deployed in cloud) , It collects xml comments from xml documentation that is being enabled by right clicking project > go to properties > Build tab > Enabling XML Documentation file check box.

The problem here is the default path will be "bin[AssemblyName].xml" I cant leave it to default path as it is not a best practice and checked in my code by changing the path to "helper[AssemblyName].xml". Now when some team member gets the latest and tries to build it is throwing the following compile time error.

"Access to folder XXXX is denied"

Which is fixed by un checking the Read Only check box in the folder properties.Though this fixes the issue I need a solution that works with out this solution.

Please suggest me some solution for the above problem.

Try to check if the xml file exists in the bin folder. For me a folder was created. I deleted that folder, clean the code, rebuilt, built and voila the error was gone. The xml file showing all the comments was formed
