I have tried to overwrite an existing assembly in the GAC and those the
operation seem to complete O.K nothing happened.

So someone told me it might be because I need to reset my computer in
order to reset the GAC

So I looked for a function that does exactly that without closing the
computer and found the function gacutil /cdl

I just wanted to make sure this doesn't delete (or un register) noting
from the GAC

So if you know what this function does please let me know

It clears the download cache (the list you get if you run Gacutil
/ldl), it doesn't touch the GAC.
