Assembly information can be changed by editing Assemblyinfo.cs file that can be seen under properties of your project in solution explorer, Here you can change the version of the assembly

using System.Reflection;
using System.Runtime.CompilerServices;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;

// General Information about an assembly is controlled through the following 
// set of attributes. Change these attribute values to modify the information
// associated with an assembly.
[assembly: AssemblyTitle("My App Title")]
[assembly: AssemblyDescription("App Description")]
[assembly: AssemblyCompany("My Company Name")]
[assembly: AssemblyProduct("ConsoleApp")]
[assembly: AssemblyCopyright("Copyright © 2015")]
[assembly: AssemblyTrademark("My Company Trademark")]
[assembly: AssemblyCulture("")]

// Setting ComVisible to false makes the types in this assembly not visible 
// to COM components.  If you need to access a type in this assembly from 
// COM, set the ComVisible attribute to true on that type.
[assembly: ComVisible(false)]

// The following GUID is for the ID of the typelib if this project is exposed to COM
[assembly: Guid("513436d3-aa2f-407b-83d2-9268300cc373")]

// Version information for an assembly consists of the following four values:
//
//      Major Version
//      Minor Version 
//      Build Number
//      Revision
//
// You can specify all the values or you can default the Build and Revision Numbers 

//*******Assembly Version can be changed here*********
// by using the '*' as shown below:
// [assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.*")]
[assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.0.0")]
[assembly: AssemblyFileVersion("1.0.0.0")]

OR

• Go to Solution Explorer
• Right Click on your project
