Common fields

It’s good practice to complete your AssemblyInfo’s default fields. The information may be picked up by installers and will then appear when using Programs and Features (Windows 10) to uninstall or change a program.

The minimum should be:

• AssemblyTitle - usually the namespace, i.e. MyCompany.MySolution.MyProject
• AssemblyCompany - the legal entities full name
• AssemblyProduct - marketing may have a view here
• AssemblyCopyright - keep it up to date as it looks scruffy otherwise

‘AssemblyTitle’ becomes the ‘File description’ when examining the DLL’s Properties Details tab.
