I have a compiled dll that was signed with Certificate A, which is not available any more. The source code for the dll is also lost, but it is needed in a legacy project (.Net 4.6).
I have changed the certificate in the legacy project, however when i compile:
Could not load file or assembly 'the dll,Version:0.0.2.1, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. A strongly-named assembly is required. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x90131044)
I found several posts on how to decompile, change the signing and then recompile, however all of them are using .snk and not .pfx
How would I do this?
The solution was to decompile the original DLL using dotPeek and to add the decompiled dll as project to the visual studio solution. After some cleanup it compiled and i could change the certificate.
