Removing the assembly from GAC

You can remove the assembly from the GAC by running AseGacUtility or by using the .NET Framework Configuration tool.

1. Go to the directory where AseGacUtility or AseGacUtility4 is installed—by default C:\Sybase\DataAccess\ADONET\dll for Adaptive Server ADO.NET Data Provider, 32-bit and C:\Sybase\DataAccess64\ADONET\dll for Adaptive Server ADO.NET Data Provider, 64-bit.

2. Run:

   AseGacUtility /u DLL_Name
   

   Or

   AseGacUtility4 /i DLL_Name
   

   For example where DLL_Name is the DLL you want to remove from the GAC.

   For example, to remove 32-bit version of Sybase.AdoNet2.AseClient.dll from the GAC, run:

   AseGacUtility /u
   C:\Sybase\DataAccess\ADONET\dll\Sybase.AdoNet2.AseClient.dll
   

   For example, to remove 64-bit version of Sybase.AdoNet4.AseClient.dll from the GAC, run:

   AseGacUtility /u
   C:\Sybase\DataAccess64\ADONET\dll\Sybase.AdoNet4.AseClient.dll
   

1. Start the .NET Framework Configuration tool. Refer to the Microsoft documentation for your specific operating system for instructions on how to start the configuration tool.

2. Select Assembly Cache from the tree view on the left.

3. Click the View List of Assemblies in the Assembly Cache link.

4. Find Sybase.AdoNet2.AseClient or Sybase.AdoNet4.AseClient from the list of assembly names. There may be multiple entries of this assembly corresponding to various versions deployed on this system.

5. Select one or more assemblies to remove. Right-click and select Delete. Click Yes to confirm.

6. Check for the publisher policy files that correspond to the versions removed and remove these files too.
