Global Assembly Cache Compare Description

The GACCompare application was designed to be a Global Assembly Cache comparison tool that will allow you to compare the GAC's of two (or more) different machines to view the differences. It helps with making sure the machines are set up similarly. When developing .Net applications you will sometime have to deploy your assemblies (that needs to be GAC'ed) to multiple machines. Inevitability, you will run into the situation where the assemblies of the two machines will get out of sync. Trying to manually figure out what and where the differences are could be a real headache - ask anyone that has tried! I created this tool a few years ago to solve this exact problem and I'm still using it regularly. It is important to note that this tool does NOT make any changes to the GAC. It only reports the differences allowing you to make the decision what and how to change it. Important: You must be an Administrator on the machine that you connect to.
