Build operations are disabled:'project.xcworkspace' has changed and is reloading

I have the exact same issue with Xcode 7.3.

Restarting the IDE helps.


I had similar issue with Xcode 9.3 and solution mentioned by @sssliver didn’t worked.

Screenshot added

Below is solution that worked :

  1. Quit Xcode (cmd + Q) and reopen project
  2. Delete derived data content.
  3. Clean project (cmd + shift + K)
  4. Build project (cmd + B)

On Xcode 11 when I changed my app folder location, I got this error and thats was because Swift Package Manager was redownloading my project libraries, once it finished downloading, it worked again...


This error occurs usually when you open a project in 2 Xcode versions or When project is opened in one Xcode and you are trying to open that in other Xcode versions.

Here are the steps to follow:-

  1. Quit both Xcode by (cmd + Q)
  2. Open Xcode

If problem still exists then

  1. Clean build folder
  2. Build project
  3. Run
