You Can Easily copy any .dll which is installed in GAC using windows. If you browse to assembly folder placed in c:\windows you will have only the option to uninstall. Rather you browse to GAC_MSIL folder under c:\windows\assembly you can see the installed assembly folders. Each folder has a subfolder under it. In sub folder you can find the DLL what you need. There is no need of using the shfusion.dll to copy the DLL’s.
Steps are as follows:
1. Browse to c:\windows\assembly\ GAC_MSIL
2. Each assemblies has a folder, with each version being a subfolder under that.
3. In the subfolder is the DLL that you can copy to a different folder of you choosing.
Can you explain how to Navigate to GAC_MSIL Folder ?
ReplyDeleteYou cannot navigate to that folder by just copy and paste the location in the address bar, rather u have to navigate via run command :)
