Suggests I run PEVerify.exe, but I can't seem to find it. Do you know where I can get it from?

Thanks.

If you installed Visual Studio. Just open a Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt (Startmenu - Programs - Visual Studio - Visual Studio Tools - Command Prompt) and enter PEVerify.exe

The path on your PC should be: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin\PEVerify.exe

PEVerify.exe does not currently support .NET Core assemblies - only .NET Framework (1.0 through 4.8) assemblies. Microsoft has hinted that they'll add support back eventually but don't hold your breath. (I'm unsure about .NET Standard assemblies, though I assume they'll work as they can be loaded by .NET Framework programs fine).

The PEVerify.exe tool is no-longer part of the .NET SDK either, but it is now part of the Windows SDK or a typical Visual Studio 2019 installation, including for Windows 10, so you can find it in these locations:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v10.0A\bin\NETFX 4.7.2 Tools\PEVerify.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v10.0A\bin\NETFX 4.7.2 Tools\x64\PEVerify.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v10.0A\bin\NETFX 4.8 Tools\PEVerify.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v10.0A\bin\NETFX 4.8 Tools\x64\PEVerify.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\bin\PEVerify.exe
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\bin\x64\PEVerify.exe
