ACT errors with DFAssist installed.

[nyagger]

Hello I removed DFAssist and reinstalled it this morning, but every time I turn on ACT, I get errors. I am only able to turn ACT back on if I uninstall DFAssist. Here is the error and thanks in advance:

System.IO.FileNotFoundException - Could not load file or assembly 'System.ValueTuple, Version=4.0.3.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51' or one of its dependencies.

What version of DFAssist are you using? give 2.1.6 a try, it should resolve all the problems related to assembly resolve.

If you still are unable to start, and getting the same exception, you may want to ensure that DFAssist.dll is located in a folder with this structure:

• ACT (folder)
  • Plugins (folder)
    • DFAssist (folder)
    • DFAssist.dll (library)
    • libs (folder)
    • data (folder)
    • localization (folder)

and that all the needed .dlls are located inside the "libs" folder, (you should see also the System.ValueTuple.dll)

let me know!

Hello, thanks for the response. I downloaded the newest version from the link you gave me and I made sure that DFAssist.dll was in a plugins folder in ACT as you suggested. I see System.Value.Tuple.dll in the libs folder also but I think I am still getting the same error. I will paste the error code just in case. Thanks!

Interestingly enough, my machine doesn't use the assembly in the libs folder. It finds a different version in the GAC according to ACT... System.ValueTuple, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51 C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.Net\assembly\GAC_MSIL\System.ValueTuple\v4.0_4.0.0.0__cc7b13ffcd2ddd51\System.ValueTuple.dll (there is no dot between Value and Tuple, btw)

As a workaround, you could install the latest .NET Framework... then ACT can just pull the assembly from the GAC instead of from the libs folder. It first exists in .NET 4.7.

Hello installing the latest .NET Framework made it work for me! Thank you so much for your help!
