Error in configuration process project files may be invalid

i get this error using cmake Version 3.11.2 on Windows 10 with visual Studio 14 2015 created Project. I already used cmake on the same Project on Windows 7 but in Windows 10 it doesnt seem to work.

Selecting Windows SDK version to target Windows 10.0.17134.

CMake Error at C:/Users/Ali/Desktop/cmake-3.11.2-win64-x64/share/cmake-3.11/Modules/Compiler/._ADSP-DetermineCompiler.cmake:1:
  Parse error.  Expected a command name, got bad character with text "".

  CMakeLists.txt


Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

See also "C:/Users/Ali/Desktop/Projekt1/build/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".

In the logfile there is nothing useful.Just :The system is: Windows - 10.0.17134 - AMD64

I already checked all other threads on stackoverflow but couldnt find a solution. Does anyone had the same error or does know what to do to fix it ?

Thanks to @Tsyvarev's answer! I had never heard of macOS filesystem metadata causing problems.

If you take cmake files on macOS and tar it you'll get this. One solution is to use --disable-copyfile when you compress it to avoid these files:

tar --disable-copyfile -czf cmake-3.19.6-rh6.tgz ./cmake-3.19.6-rh6/

Under Modules/Compiler/ there shouldn't be files started with ._. Probably, you got them when copy CMake from external drive, which has such files as hidden ones. E.g. from MacOS.

Either remove files started with ._, or repeat copying of CMake without them.
