iOS Question Error: Could not delete (file) because it was not created by the build system

My development certificate expired. I created a new one (see below) following standard steps. I also noticed the B4i-Bridge was no longer working ("not available") on any of my devices. I deleted them with the intent of installing new ones. On the first device installation, the iPhone was connected to the MacBook Pro with Apple Configurator running. When I compiled a "Build a B4i-Bridge App" the B4i-Bridge auto-installed on the iPhone and everything worked. I hooked up a second iPhone and went through the same procedure. I receive the following error:

B4i Version: 7.80

** CLEAN FAILED **

I have reinstalled another new certificate and provisioning profile but to no avail. I have tried compiling without Apple Configurator checked - same error.

Manually delete this folder: /Users/neilrohan1/Downloads/B4iBuildServer/UploadedProjects/<user id>/build

Or change the user id under Tools - Build Server - Settings.
