I have run across and issue where I cannot remove an assembly from the GAC. I tried doing it from the Command Line but did not work. I also right clicked on the file in the %System%\Assembly Folder and clcked delete. It propted me with the are you sure message I clicked ok and it never deletes the assembly from the GAC.
I then tried this from the command line. The assembly is in the correct folder and I cannot get the thing to delete. There are no error messages I do not have MSN messenger installed yet So I do not need to run the reg hack for that but if it was that reason i would be getting an error message which I am not. any Clues??? thanks JJ C:\WINDOWS\assembly>gacutil -u ApolloGrp.IntSvcs.StaticCache -r FILEPATH d:\Apol loGrp\ApolloGrp.IntSvcs.StaticCache1.3.dll "ApolloGrp.IntSvcs.StaticCache" Microsoft (R) .NET Global Assembly Cache Utility.
