Could not load Custom Membership Provider

I have created my own custom membership provider and referenced it in the web.config as follows

<membership defaultProvider="MyMembershipProvider">
  <providers>
    <clear />
    <add name="MyMembershipProvider" type="HelpDeskSupport.App_Code.MyMembershipProvider, HelpDeskSupport.App_code"
         cacheTimeoutInMinutes="30"/>
  </providers>
</membership>

However whenever I run the project it complains Could not load file or assembly 'HelpDeskSupport.App_code' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

I have checked the root folder and everything checks out, here is a snapshot of the folder structure

Any suggestions please?

The second part in the type element has to be just the assembly name:

type="HelpDeskSupport.App_Code.MyMembershipProvider, HelpDeskSupport"
