Nadya,

While an EXE is running there is a file level lock on the file which will prevent it from being written to by a build or copy.

The users should copy the exe from the network drive to their local machines. You can build directly to the network exe or to your local drive and then copy it to the network server.

If the users are all running the exe from the server you will have to kick them all out when you need to update the exe. Your launcher program can check the local and server exe version stamps to know if it needs to update the users machine.

>Do you mean, applications should be always copied to local's machines of the users or I have to use my own local drive, re-compile projects, when update them on the server? Is it possible at all to have all applications running directly from the server (our current situation)?
