Sorry I miss the fact that you moved the executable around and was not a
"regular" compile.
I've read your message too fast, obviously, sorry.

I'm not much a Visual Studio user and it has been a long time since I need
to compile something on windows.

You basically require that an executable not built by VS appears as a
"runnable/debuggable" target in VS?
Are you able to do that from VS "manually" ?

Again I'm no VS/Windows specialist so others may have more valuable remark
on that.
