DLL Caching Issue, Used By Another Process in Visual Studio

Of all the projects I have worked on I keep this this error below with multiple referenced projects. I keep having to clean it and then build. I feel like I am in Eclipse but this is happening in Visual Studio. This has never happened before, any tips on what to check?

Error 53 Unable to copy file "C:\Development\Projects\Pearson\ARIES\Development\Projects\ARIES.Web.Models\bin\Debug\ARIES.Web.Models.dll" to "bin\ARIES.Web.Models.dll". The process cannot access the file 'bin\ARIES.Web.Models.dll' because it is being used by another process. ARIES.Web

Edit your project file and add this to the first PropertyGroup:

   <GenerateResourceNeverLockTypeAssemblies>true</GenerateResourceNeverLockTypeAssemblies>
