Hey @pramosfsgroup . Sorry for the late response. Seems like from the icon on the Translations.resx that the IDE is not building a designer.cs file out of the resource file. Make sure you set the ResXFileGenerator runs when you save the resource. Right click on the file and under the properties tab, you can set it to work.

Or if you are using VS for Mac you can achieve it by the following snippet in the csproj file

<EmbeddedResource Update="Resources\Translations\Translations.resx">
      <Generator>ResXFileCodeGenerator</Generator>
      <LastGenOutput>MSMobileTranslations.Designer.cs</LastGenOutput>
    </EmbeddedResource>

After you see an arrow pointing down next to your file in the solution explorer, expand it, and you will see the generated designer.cs file under your resx file.

Then dont forget to add the using statement in the Startup.cs:)

Hope this helps.
