The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference

Question

I am trying to run some unit tests in a C# Windows Forms application (Visual Studio 2005), and I get the following error:

System.IO.FileLoadException: Co

Answer 1

In my case, this error occurred while running an ASP.NET application. The solution was to:

1. Delete the obj and bin folders in the project folder

Clean didn't work, rebuild didn't work, all references were fine, but it wasn't writing one of the libraries. After deleting those directories, everything worked perfectly.
