Answer 1

For me it was that AssembyInfo.cs and SolutionInfo.cs had different values. So check these files as well. I just removed the version from one of them.

Answer 2

I found this answer on msdn, that explains marking the file as Content and then Copy to Output = If Newer. See article below:

Answer 3

Edit you AssemblyInfo.cs and #if !NETCOREAPP3_0 ... #endif

using System.Reflection;
using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
// General Information about an assembly is controlled through the following
// set of attributes. Change these attribute values to modify the information
// associated with an assembly.

#if !NETCOREAPP3_0  

[assembly: AssemblyTitle(".Net Core Testing")]
[assembly: AssemblyDescription(".Net Core")]
[assembly: AssemblyConfiguration("")]
[assembly: AssemblyCompany("")]
[assembly: AssemblyProduct(".Net Core")]
[assembly: AssemblyCopyright("Copyright ©")]
[assembly: AssemblyTrademark("")]
[assembly: AssemblyCulture("")]

// Setting ComVisible to false makes the types in this assembly not visible
// to COM components.  If you need to access a type in this assembly from
// COM, set the ComVisible attribute to true on that type.
[assembly: ComVisible(false)]

// The following GUID is for the ID of the typelib if this project is exposed to COM
[assembly: Guid("000b119c-2445-4977-8604-d7a736003d34")]

// Version information for an assembly consists of the following four values:
//
//      Major Version
//      Minor Version
//      Build Number
//      Revision
//
// You can specify all the values or you can default the Build and Revision Numbers
// by using the '*' as shown below:
// [assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.*")]
[assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.0.0")]
[assembly: AssemblyFileVersion("1.0.0.0")]

#endif
