How to solve "System.IO.FileNotFoundException" in Windows?

198 Views Asked by At

I'm facing the following error message:

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: 'Could not load file or assembly 'Application Server Core, 
Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies.
The system cannot find the file specified.'

This means that the file "Application Server Core.dll", version 1.0.0.0, is not present in a runtime directory.
A runtime directory?
Yes: I have an application in one directory and a bunch of DLLs in another one. But that's not the main issue.

The point is that I'm working in a client environment, which means that the "Application Server Core" should even not be loaded.

So, I'm asking which other application or DLL is trying to load this DLL. I can't find out while checking the callstack, so I thought having a look inside the other applications or DLLs, using the Windows equivalent of the ldd or the nm UNIX/Linux commands, and you can already guess my question:

What are the Windows equivalents for the UNIX/Linux ldd and nm commands?

Thanks in advance
