The file is used by another process error when creating a solution in VIsual Studio

When you create a Windows Forms project in Visual Studio 2010, the following problem occurs:

69: "Failed to copy the file 'bin \ Debug \ MyApplication.exe. The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process."

I can free and delete this file manually using the "Unlocker" application, and there I see that devenv.exe is blocking my application (Visual Studio itself). What are the possible causes of this and how can it overcome this problem.

But it happened again. Just do a Google search using your own title, you will find 5 different reasons.
