How do I resolve this Kinect error: Add an AssemblyVersion attribute to 'Microsoft.Kinect.Toolkit.dll'

Question

I am developing an app with Microsoft's Kinect SDK (version 1.5), but code generates a warning message:

CA1016 : Microsoft.Design : Add an AssemblyVersion attribute to 'Microsoft.Kinect.Toolkit.dll'.

How do I fix it?

This is happening when you try to include the DLL? What code exactly is generating this? – Holle

Is it just a warning? Or is it an actual error? – Bleier

Answer 1

This is not an important error. An Assembly version is just what version of your software it is. You can easily fix this.

Simply go to your project -> properties -> application -> Assembly Information and you will see a box like this

Just change the Assembly Version, save and you should be fine. Hope this helps!
