Hi,

I have a c# console application developed with Visual Studio 2010. All of a sudden, there appeared to be a pfx file called "ProjectName_TemporaryKey.pfx" under the root directory of the project. How can this file be created ? What happens when I delete it ? Can I delete it ?

Thanks in advance,

Did you use Click Once for deployment? This [^]article explains about who and when it is created.

Actually according to TFS, my boss seems to have added this file but he does not remember adding the file and has no knowledge of adding ClickOnce deployment option. I have deleted the file and unchecked Enable ClickOnce Security Settings option under Security Tab and Sign The ClickOnce Manifests under Signing Tab with no errors. I hope I have done everything correct.
