Answer 1

"Error CS0507 can also occur if a class attempts to override a method marked as protected internal defined in referenced metadata. In this situation, the overriding method should be marked as protected."

• Source: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/language-reference/compiler-messages/cs0507

So, just simply remove the "internal" keyword from your overriding method, and keep it only "protected".
