I have finished coding an application which I designed for people working in my office. When I started to install the application to computers at the office, I realized that, in some machines, application doesn�t work properly. Although it worked for 15 computers perfectly, for 3 computers following error code is displayed:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Core, Version=3.5.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftFusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftFusion!EnableLog].

We have a vb application with many forms that contain a "lookup" button that has an icon called find.ico. Once in a while, a user will open one of these forms and get the below error but not every time. Has anyone else run into a similar situation? Since it is not consistent, it's been very difficult to track down.
Exception Source: System.Drawing
Exception Type: System.IO.FileNotFoundException
Exception Message: find.ico

I have a WPF application that has 3 projects in the solution. I have the main menu, which is the actual EXE, a reporting DLL and the application files DLL which both are a WPF Class Library. I'm getting the System.IO error when I'm trying to use a 3rd party reporting tool from in the application files DLL. I have the 3rd party DLLs referenced and are set to copy local in my application DLL. Everything works fine if i reference the 3rd party reporting tool in the EXE project but I don't want to do that. I want my DLL to be stand alone so someone else can reference my DLL without having to add anything but my DLL.

I created a SQL application that synchronises with a SQLCE database when loaded. Works fine on my Dev machine but produces the following error on user machines:
System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Synchronization.Data, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
File name: 'Microsoft.Synchronization.Data, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91'
In my attempts to fix, I have:
1) Reinstalled SQL Compact Editon 3.5 on the client machines
2) Reinstalled .NET Framework 3.5
3) Installed Microsoft Sync Framework 1.0 (which puts the 'missing' DLL onto the machines).
This still fails with the same error.

Im attempting to make a "Licensing" system, but I dont know where to start. I know I would need some sort of "database". Heres the basic idea of what I would like my program to turn out. "License" creator: -I give a "permanent" ID Generator to someone -They get an ID that only works for their computer, and doesnt change unless the computer is changed -They give me their ID -I input the ID into a "database" -Program creates a "License" file using the "permanent" ID Main Program: -Loads the License File -Checks if the License is a valid file (using the database)

One of them is giving us trouble in only 1 spot out of the 4 spots we use it at:The trouble spot is a windows form project that uses reflection to dynamically load some DLLs that run long running processes. One of these long running processes is an agent that relies on one of our vender DLLsWe're getting the missing assembly exception at the point where we first enter a function that references the library. I already checked the silly things such as if we had forgotten to move a reference from the old version to the new version, but that's not the case. I also checked the bin directory of the project and the assembly is there.

The following code causes an error but should work. Any ideas? The same code (originally in REALbasic) does work so the currentuser (also an admin on the pc) does have access to write to the registry.

I can write to a registry key in hkey_current_users using this code:
Code:
Dim MyRegKey As Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey
Dim MyReg As Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey = Microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey.OpenRemoteBaseKey(Microsoft.Win32.RegistryHive.CurrentUser, "Remote Computer Name")
[code]....
It changes the vaule for this key. But the problem is, that since several people log onto this machine using different accounts. I need to be able to specify which account under the current user gets this registry change.

I was unable to find anything in my searches for XML or INI on the forum so i apologize now if this has already been asked and answered before.
I have been searching Google for days now, trying to find information on Reading and Writing XML files. I wish to use them to replace INI files in my programs.
I have been using VB6 for years now, but was able to get a copy of VB.NET 2003 really cheap and so i am trying to learn how to do the things i did in VB6 in VB.NET 2003.
I was able to find code to write to an INI file, but was not able to successfully read from an INI file with any of the code i found.
I have been able to find code to write an XML file, but when i try to update it, it replaces the old file with a new one, and the old settings are missing, instead of the new settings added to it.
i can at least start migrating to VB.NET 2003, or if you read XML and update XML data, i can switch now. Here is the code i have for writing XML.[code...]

I have an application which reads and writes to the registry. If the programs starts, it looks if the registry keys exists. If not it create the keys. All this is working fine on a Windows XP machine.
Now we moved to Windows 7 and it is not possible to write to the keys. First I need to go to the registry and add permissions. Then it works !
Is it possible to change the permissions in the .Net code and make it able to write to the registry without changing permissions through regedit ?
