I just installed ArcGIS 10.4 and the .NET SDK for the same. In Visual Studio 2015, I created an addin using the Wizard. All goes well till that point. When I build this project, I get following error. I am totally confused by this. Can someone suggest a fix or how to workaround this? I have searched on the internet but haven't managed to find anything useful. Any help is much appreciated.

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].    FPTool
