Hi,
I tried to remove assembly from Framework 1.1 Configuration, it says 'Error
removing assembly' I then hit the gactil which results the following
Microsoft (R) .NET Global Assembly Cache Utility. Version
1.1.4322.573
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation 1998-2002. All rights reserved.
Assembly: foo, Version=1.0.1.1, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken=1234567890123456, Custom=null
Assembly could not be uninstalled because it is required by Windows
Installer
Unable to uninstall: assembly is required by one or more applications
Pending references:
SCHEME: <WINDOWS_INSTALLER> ID: <MSI> DESCRIPTION : <Windows
Installer>
Number of items uninstalled = 0
Number of failures = 0
---------------------------------------------------------
I also looked the following registry keys, but there is no such entry.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Installer\Assemblies
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Assemblies
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Fahad

Did you look under the \Global subkey? See
