Could not load file or assembly 'Castle.DynamicProxy2, Version=2.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=407dd0808d44fbdc' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference.

I'm getting above error because I've Castle.DynamicProxy2, Version=2.2.0.0. Due to some reasons i need to use Castle.DynamicProxy2, Version=2.2.0.0. Any help regards this?

   This is (unfortunately) fairly common in the open-source world. Luckily, it is a relatively easy fix. You'll need to add an <assemblyBinding> attribute to your App.config file telling your app to look for the new version when the old version is requested.

   Here is an example:

   <runtime>
       ...
       <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
         <dependentAssembly>
           <assemblyIdentity name="Castle.DynamicProxy2" publicKeyToken="407dd0808d44fbdc" culture="neutral" />
           <bindingRedirect oldVersion="2.1.0.0" newVersion="2.2.0.0" />
         </dependentAssembly>
       </assemblyBinding>
     </runtime>
