.NET WinForms: Cound not load System.Runtime

Question

I was writing an app for a friend who wanted an easy way to use Morse Code.

I was attempting to use an External Library that I wrote with Morse Code support, and when I try to call it, I get this error, in an External " Control.cs " file. I found happened in both Visual Studio and JB Rider, though Visual Studio gives a different error as it can't debug external sources.

My usings are:

using CainsSharpTools; // <= This is my Library
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Windows.Forms;

And my function call looks like this:

private void buttonEncode_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
            => textBoxMorse.Text = MorseCode.Parse(textBoxPlain.Text).Value;

The error is

System.IO.FileLoadException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Runtime, Version=4.2.2.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)
