Is E:\ local? I suspect it might be a network share. If the MSBuild process is using elevated privileges then all network shares (created when non-elevated) disappear. This only occurs with WindowsServer 2008R2 and above I believe (and I'm not sure if it's in Windows 7, but it's definitely in Windows 8 and above)
Is v3.7.1224.0 the version that you are expecting?
