Different binaries on different machines

We are facing issue to generate the binaries for our target microcontroller. The details/settings are as below.

Microcontroller - STM8AF6246

ST Visual Develop - version 4.3.9

Cosmic compiler - version 7.5.1

Memory model - Long Stack (+modsl0)

Our target executable is in *.s19 format.

However, when we Build our software, it is generating different binaries on different machines! All of the settings are same as well as same work space (*stw) is being used.

Can anyone suggest us the possible problem?

Update: We found that there were different versions of ST Visual Developer and Cosmic compiler for STM8 MCU. We installed same version and the binary checksum are same.

It has resolved the problem for now for us.

However, question is why would different binaries be generated even in such case? This would make impossible to upgrade the STVP IDE.
