VS Code – Error: EPERM: operation not permitted

I encountered the error message when renaming or moving files in VS Code.
I then noticed that it was the same in Windows Explorer.

I develop in Angular using Angular-CLI and I execute the command ng build --watch in a cmd.

When I stopped the watch command, that solved the issue and I was able to rename and move files in VS Code without any problem.

So I think there are some processes that hold your files.
I hope this can help.
