Description
A plea...
Deanna and I have been running this site since 2008 and lately we're seeing a big increase in
users (and cost) but a decline in percentage of users who donate. Our ad-free and junkware-free
download site only works if everyone chips in to offset the revenue that ads on other sites bring
in. Please donate at the bottom of the page. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much.
Sincerely,
your Older Geeks: Randy and Deanna

SNRemove v1.00

When a dll or exe file is signed with strong name keys, .NET doesn't allow you to modify it. If you try to use a signed assembly, after you have made some changes with Hex editor or any other tool, you'll get the following exception:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.IO.FileLoadException' occurred in system.windows.forms.dll Additional information: Strong name validation failed for assembly 'MyAssembly.Test'.

If you try to run a signed executable file after you have made some changes in it, you'll get the following error message:
String name validation failed for assembly... The file may have been tampered with or it was partially signed but not fully signed with the correct private key.

This utility removes the reference to strong name signature from .NET exe and dll files. After removing the strong name reference, you can make any change you want in dll/exe file, without getting any exception or error message. However, be aware that assemblies with no strong name reference cannot be added into the Global Assembly Cache (GAC).

Using SNRemove
Using SNRemove is very simple - just extract the snremove.exe to any folder you like, and run it from Command Prompt with the desired command-line parameters.

SNRemove Usage
SNRemove [options] <filename>

Options:
-r Remove the reference to Strong Name signature from the specified file.
-d Display the Strong Name signature of the specified file.

The <filename> parameter may also contain wildcards.

Examples:
SNRemove -r c:\myfiles\dll1.dll
SNRemove -d "c:\my files\*.dll"

System Requirements
Although this utility is designed to work with exe and dll files created for .NET environment, the utility by itself wasn't written in .NET, which means that it can work in all versions of Windows, even if .NET Framework is not installed.
