VC++ projects keep being out of date

I have a solution which contains both C# and C++/CLI projects. My problem is that the C++ projects are always out of date, and the IDE keeps asking if I want to build them.

There are some custom build steps, which copy some files here and there, and I suspect that might cause the issue (?). I'd be fine with disabling up-to-date check for these projects (if there's no other way), because they are not going to be modified for now. How can I do that?

Please note, this question is very similar, but not a duplicate.

Check whether during build (or post build) tasks, you change a dependency, which determines (of course) a new, fresh build.

Another possibility is that you mentioned as part of the custom build task, a dependency that doesn't really exist (e.g. an external file with the wrong name or path).
