I had the same problem with exact same dll file. Unlike Tisa suggested to put the dll to a shorter path, my project was getting the dll file from .nuget folder from my user folder like: C:\Users\nameofuser\.nuget\...path... which I knew, I shouldn't modify plus I had no idea after modification where should I reference it.

So, for publishing, I moved my project to a shorter path location such as from C:\Users\nameofuser\Documents\Visual Studio 2019\repo\Github\projectfolder to C:\Users\nameofuser\Desktop\projectfolder and it worked fine. Make sure to grant relevant file permissions to Visual Studio after copying/moving the project to a different location.
