Hi,

I’m getting the below error when trying to add Reference to the VS Community 2017 project.

I’ve tried applying the solution as I’ve found at few places while trying to get solution over google, pasting below, but my folder structure is quite different compare to the one given in solutions, i.e. C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE, and I could not find the file with the name ‘gacutil’ even I’ve run command prompt with ‘dir gacutil*.* /s’ in my drive.

Thank you for help in advance.

“1.Launch Developer Command Prompt for VS 2017

2.CD C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\Common7\IDE\PublicAssemblies

3.Run gacutil -i Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.11.0.dll

You should now see Microsoft (R) .NET Global Assembly Cache Utility. Version 4.0.30319.0 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

Assembly successfully added to the cache

Restart Visual Studio and hopefully all will be well and you can add references.”
