I tried to deploy our solution in visual studio while activating the feature it throws an error message like these

Error 2   Error occurred in deployment step 'Activate Features': Failed to load receiver assembly Branding, Version=1.0.0.0,

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF. To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value

[HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1. Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging. To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].

If I rename the Feature name means it's working sometimes, but first time I deploying the solution means it throwing this error,Please help me to solve this issue

  • Your solution might have dependency on Assembly. So try to put that assembly in GAC. It may resolve your issue.

  • This happens more than you think. To me, this error appear when I change from Release to Debug and viceversa. What I do in this cases is perform a deploy with powershell using -Force attribute.

Reset to default

I would recommend try to deploy using the powershell like this 

Add-SPSolution -LiteralPath c:\solution.wsp

Install-SPSolution -Identity solution.wsp -GACDeployment

If you dont want to do this then try this

  • Remove feature receiver
  • Clean solution
  • Close Visual Studio
  • Delete SharePoint project's obj folder in Windows Explorer
  • Delete SharePoint project's bin folder in Windows Explorer
  • Open Visual Studio and re-add feature receiver
  • Start Debugging
