SelectorSwitch causes compile error

I am using SelectorSwitch for the first time.  When I select drop it in from the toolbox, I get this when I try to run it:

The MainForm.resx must have been downloaded from the internet. Move that file out of the AdvancedHMI directory

Ok, makes sense, but then I get an error that it cannot be found.  So, not sure where to go with this.

I delete the switch, then add back.  Then the original issue repeats.

What i'm needing is a simple on/off toggle.  If this is achievable with a different object, I'm open to that. 

Thanks.

Close Visual Studio
Using File Explorer, browse to the resx file
Right click the file and select Properties
Set the Unblock box and click OK
The re-open the solution

What you are asking me to do is very clear.  However, I'm faced with the issue of no block box.  Nowhere in the tabs do I see this, nor have I ever seen it in file props.  What am I missing?

--Updated--
For the record, Unblock is available for a .vb file.  Do I need to associate this datatype to vb??

It must no longer be blocked. If you close VS and re-open, then rebuild , is the error still there?

Actually, I unblocked the mainform.vb file, and that got it working.
