Recently I was adding interop.wialib to a strongly named project.  As wialib wasn’t strongly named I got the following error:

Assembly generation failed – Referenecd assembly ‘Interop.WIALib’ does not have a strong name

I then came across this excellent tip from CodeProject which allows you to strongly name many of Microsoft assemblies:

The steps are
1) Create a key:
     sn -k keypair.snk

2) Rebuild the com object;
tlbimp OldDll.tlb /out:NewDll.dll /keyfile:keypair.snk

3) Remove the OldDll.dll from the project references

4) Add NewDll.dll the project

5) Full rebuild
