Output file (firmware.bin) not updated upon compilation completion

[skypuppy]

Issue Type: Bug

mvsc, marlin 2.0.xbugfix. Now sure how to "share" steps needed, but msvc will not update the "firmware.bin" file regardless of what changes are made in configuration.h or configuration_adv.h. The "new" firmware.bin is exactly identical to something from an unknown time ago and running "diff" on them shows they are IDENTICAL!!!

Also, random and frequent of complete msvc crashes.

SOLVED:
For some reason, mvsc editor started using config.h and config_adv.h from a completely different directory! My changes were being edited and saved there, while the compile time .h files were the normal ones specified in the source tree. No clue how that happened!
