Cannot build Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Project with ReSharper Build
A few days ago I activated the ReSharper Build tool for my C# Solutuion and so far it works as expected. Today I tried to build the installer for my application but the build completes almost instantly without generating any output. The packaging process seems to be skipped entirely. Switching back to the regular VS compiler generates the installer without issue.
I usually start the deployment process by right-clicking the Installer Project and selecting ‘Build’ from the Context Menu. Additionally the ReSharper Tool seems to build all Projects in the solution including Test Projects, which is not the case when using the default Build Tool.
Is there a way build my installer with the ReSharper Build tool or to let it default back to the standard Build?
I use ReSharper 2024.1.2 and Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Projects 2022 v.2.0.1

thank you for contacting us.
Please try to install our latest release: https://www.jetbrains.com/resharper/download/#section=offline-installer and check how it works for you.
Thank you!
I've updated to the current version (2024.1.5) but the issue remains the same.
Here is the build output of the Project:
Could you please run Visual Studio with the following command line: 'devenv /ReSharper.LogFile C:\log\resharper_log.txt /ReSharper.LogLevel Verbose'? After that, open any problem file and attach the corresponding 'resharper_log.txt' file.
Thank you!
It looks like the compiler has an issue with some part of the installer project.
thank you for the log file.
