Firstly, congratulation to the release of 1.6.1



Just got done installing 1.6.1 on Win2K machine. Everything went through fine.

Now as soon as I try to open any solution (including C# samples), I get the message the VS has encounter error and if I click "Don't Send" it closes VS and re-opens VS.



I rebooted the machine but no luck!



I also tried opening VB samples, same thing!



Thanks!

You can manually install the assemblies with gacutil....or just download the new install that is posted in the My Account area and it will take care of it.  To install with gacutil you will use the "-i" parameter.  The easiest thing though if you are not familiar with the command line tools and have permission issues is to just download the latest build....which was corrected the same time the zip file was posted out here...and it will fix your problem as well.

Correct.  The GAC always takes precedence.  Anytime that an assembly tries to load it ALWAYS looks in the GAC first....even if you manually call Assembly.LoadFile() and give it the direct path of an assembly.
