ClickOnce publish error. Failed to copy dll.deploy files

Question

I just finished a WPF project in C# , it worked great until couple of minutes ago. Then I deleted some files that I don't need anymore ,like Page1.xaml and Page1.xaml.cs . Then I tried to publish the project with ClickOnce, and I got 129 errors...

" Error Failed to copy file 'C:\Users\xxxxx\source\repos\OATradex\bin\Release\app.publish\Application Files\OATrade_1_0_0_15\System.Xml.XPath.dll.deploy' to 'C:/Users/xxxxxx/Downloads/OANDA/release/Application Files/OATrade_1_0_0_15/System.Xml.XPath.dll.deploy'.
