Hi,

I am not sure about the above code if it will work or no. But in general, whenever you want to sign your assembly (project) in Visual Studio you can either use the certificates that Visual Studio uses to sign your app or sign an Assembly with a Strong Name. For both solutions, I will leave a link where you can get more information and a tutor for how to do.
Manage the certificates that Visual Studio uses to sign your app[^]

Please do not hesitate to leave a comment to get more help, I can improve this solution until your problem gets solved.

Cheers,
