Rust supposed to be most beloved programming language! oh 2 days and not able to run single line of code on Windows 10, Visual Studio 2017 full installation, Rust version 1.21.0

Keep getting: error: linking with link.exe failed: exit code: 1181

I gave up!, I will keep using COBOL, looks more modern.

@fakoua For error 1181, see #30229 (comment).

I got the same error recently and I found the solution. Make sure your application isn't open while you run the compiler.
