What is the GAC and where is it located?

Question

Manish Kumar · Answer

It is the Global Assembly Cache. Shared assemblies reside in the GAC; GAC allows applications to share assemblies instead of having the assembly distributed with each application. Versioning allows multiple assembly versions to exist in the GAC—applications can specify version numbers in the config file. The gacutil command line tool is used to manage the GAC.
