Don't know why my Visual Studio / ASP.NET webforms app suddenly stopped running on my local machine. If I upload the compiled project to the dev server, it also starts to produce this error. The message is shown below.
I removed and re-added the AjaxControlToolkit (v20.1.0) several times and it's not helping. I even used nuget locals all -clear command and it's still not helping. Furthermore, I use git to revert my project back to a good branch, and still not good. Something must have happened with my PC or IIS. Any ideas?
This is the error I get:
Could not load file or assembly 'AjaxControlToolkit' or one of its dependencies. Strong name signature could not be verified. The assembly may have been tampered with, or it was delay signed but not fully signed with the correct private key. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131045)
I turned on assembly logging and here's the output that comes with the message above:
