| re: Cannot remove a .NET assembly from GAC
I am enclosing what MS recommends for IEWebcontrols.
-------
3. Check the Global Assembly Cache (GAC) to ensure that
Microsoft.Web.UI.WebControls and Microsoft.Web.UI.WebControls.Design
do not appear. You may use the command "gacutil -l" to do this. The
gacutil tool is located at Program
Files\Microsoft.NET\FrameworksSDK\Bin or Program Files\Microsoft
Visual Studio .NET\FrameworksSDK\Bin. If the DLLs still exist in the
GAC, unregister the DLLs. Use the following syntax to unregister the
DLLs:
gacutil -u Microsoft.Web.UI.WebControls
gacutil -u Microsoft.Web.UI.WebControls.Design
-------
Hope this helps.
