I am constantly this error in debug mode.

It seems an old problem that your project is locked by some other process due to some reasons. You can see this similar issue.

It is complex to explain that but you can try the following steps if you faced them next time:

Suggestion

1) open Task Manager--> shut down ConsoleApp1.exe process, any dotnet process, NET Core Host process or similar process every time when you faced this issue and then build your project again.

2) close VS, delete .vs hidden folder under solution folder, bin and obj folder and then restart VS

3) enter Tools-->Options-->Projects and Solutions-->Build and Run-->set maximum numbers of parallel project builds to 1.

4) uncheck option Use Managed Compatibility Mode under Tools-->Options-->Debugging-->General
