I use this CustomBuildAction

B4X:

#CustomBuildAction: 1, c:\windows\system32\attrib.exe, +r res\*.* /s
#CustomBuildAction: 4, c:\windows\system32\attrib.exe, -r res\*.* /s

but after debugging my app (in rare cases) B4A delete all folders from res directory except drawable, layout and xml.
So my folders drawable-xxxhdpi, drawable-xxhdpi, drawable-xhdpi, etc, are deleted.

the files in this folder (everything under res\) should be writeprotected.
Or use a custom Resourcefolder set with #additionalres

Did you see whether the the custom actions were executed (in the compilation window)?

I agree with @DonManfred that it is better to use #AdditionalRes for this.

I really did not pay attention.
