Difference between Build Solution, Rebuild Solution, and Clean Solution in Visual Studio

This blog will explain the difference between Build, Rebuild and Clean solution in visual studio:


difference between Build, Rebuild and Clean solution
Build vs Rebuild

Build: it complies and links only those source code files DLL /EXE that have changed since the last build. So normally build is faster than Rebuild and it build only those project, which have changed source code.

Rebuild : it clean all project artifices (clean bin folder)  and compile and link all source code files from scratch regardless of whether they changed or not.

Clean: it deletes all compiled files (DLL and EXE files)
