The certificate for the signer of the message is invalid or not found

A Colleuge of Mine was running the new Microsoft CRM SDK however when he tried to execute the Application it kept failing in:
Microsoft.IdentityModel accompanied with this message in Visual Studio: 'Could not load file or assembly ‘Microsoft.IdentityModel Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35’ or one of its dependencie. The system cannot fine the find specified.'

When I downloaded the WIF from Microsoft and Installed Its Application then I seen this:

SOLUTION : After doing a little research, I discovered that Windows Identity Foundation is built into Windows 8.1 that you can add via Add Programs and Features

After selecting Windows Identity Foundation 3.5 from the Add Roles and Features Wizard, I clicked Next and then Install. Once the installation wizard completed I run my application and it worked without any Issue. Well I did need to restart Visual Studio.
