As titles says, Im trying to publish one of the components from github so I can use it without Visual Studio. First, when I tried publishing I got the same problem as everyone else, and that’s could not find file ImageViewerDotNet.dll and AudioPlayerDotNet.dll. I found those dependencies in code and deleted then and program published, but when I run it I get following error

Unhandled Exception: System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for ‘VideoOS.Platform.SDK.Environment’ threw an exception. —> Autofac.Core.DependencyResolutionException: An exception was thrown while activating VideoOS.Platform.SDK.EnvironmentService → VideoOS.Platform.SDK.Platform.SDKEnvironmentManager. —> Autofac.Core.DependencyResolutionException: An exception was thrown while invoking the constructor ‘Void .ctor()’ on type ‘SDKEnvironmentManager’. —> System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly ‘VideoOS.IdentityServer.Common, Version=24.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=bc60fba4a7969f89’ or one of its dependencies.

I also tried publishing Gui app and it just crashes instantly

I suspect that you have old dlls or a mix of old and new.

If you remove all references, and all files from your output folder, then reference the MilestoneSystems.VideoOS.Platform.SDK NuGet. If you can build without errors you should be able to copy the output folder to another PC, deploying it that way.
