I was writing a simple program in Visual Studio that requires an external library. When I debug it everything went smoothly.

Since I want to distribute the exe alone without the dlls, I installed Costura, clear all the previous builds and then press debug. Strangely the error "SignTool.exe not found" error pops out. However I am not publishing the exe, I am just trying to build it, how come this error will pop out?

Even after I uninstalled Costura, this problem still exists.

I suspect that Costura modifies your project to require signing. If you don't care about signing, you can disable/revert it.

It seems that SignTool.exe is not installed by default for VS2015, but you can add it yourself.
