Hi Greg
I am having the same issue. I manually added some assemblies, both by
using GACUtil and Drag-drop into Assembly folder. I have not used a
custom installer.
Why is Windows Installer a registered dependance of these assemblies,
but it was not used to put it in the GAC.
Rebooting the PC has not fixed it.
Cheers...

Did you place it in the GAC with a custom installer? That is an issue.
Also, did it once get used by a web app? If so, recycle the aspnet
worker
process, which should free it.
