Definition

Installs a .NET Assembly in a target directory or in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC).
The respective installation file has to be selected (exe or dll).
Please also specify the target directory, even if you do not want to install in the GAC.

InstallAssembly automatically determines the required .NET Framework version for the Assembly and checks whether this version exists on the managed computer during installation.

The command is only executed if the required version exists!
If an error occurs while running the command, the script stops. If you want to continue the script if there is an error, enable the setting Continue script despite error in the Script Editor.

The execution of InstallAssembly corresponds to the .NET Framework tool InstallUtil.exe.
