I know that some time has passed since this was set, but since I use SO for my own link and I had this problem, I also wanted to share my solution.
.snk files are intended for signing a project. You may need to make a new one.
- Right click on your project and select properties.
- Click Sign.
- Check the box next to "Sign assembly."
- In the drop-down list that says "Choose a strong name key file," click "New."
- Fill out the dialog box if you want to highlight the key file name. When you click ok, this will create a new .snk file.
- Save the project and rebuild.
- This will use the new .snk in your project and resolve the error.
Hope this helps.
