    • Click Yes to revalidate your workspace. Depending on the size of the workspace and the number of errors, there is a delay while the revalidation occurs.
    • Click No to revalidate your workspace later. The revalidation will take place when the concept file next changes or is saved, or when you explicitly request a rebuild of the project or workspace.
    • Click Cancel if you do not wish to apply your changes.
