How do I enable assembly bind failure logging (Fusion) in .NET?

Answer 1

You can run this Powershell script as administrator to enable FL:

Set-ItemProperty -Path HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Fusion -Name ForceLog         -Value 1               -Type DWord
Set-ItemProperty -Path HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Fusion -Name LogFailures      -Value 1               -Type DWord
Set-ItemProperty -Path HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Fusion -Name LogResourceBinds -Value 1               -Type DWord
Set-ItemProperty -Path HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Fusion -Name LogPath          -Value 'C:\FusionLog\' -Type String
mkdir C:\FusionLog -Force

and this one to disable:

Remove-ItemProperty -Path HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Fusion -Name ForceLog
Remove-ItemProperty -Path HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Fusion -Name LogFailures
Remove-ItemProperty -Path HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Fusion -Name LogResourceBinds
Remove-ItemProperty -Path HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Fusion -Name LogPath
