Can you have two files with the same file name in GAC?

Question

Varun Agrawal · Answer

Yes, remember that GAC is a very special folder, and while normally you
 would not be able to place two files with the same name into a Windows 
folder, GAC differentiates by version number as well, so it’s possible 
for MyApp.dll and MyApp.dll to co-exist in GAC if the first one is 
version 1.0.0.0 and the second one is 1.1.0.0.
