Devart Forums

Recently i cannot open any of the models with entity developer.

Maybe the problem is i installed new version, then uninstalled and installed old version again.

This issue may be caused by an installation error. Please try performing the following:
- uninstall Entity Developer;
- clear the Program Files\Devart and Program Files\Common Files\Devart folders;
- remove all Devart.* and policy.*.Devart.* files from the GAC;
- re-install Entity Developer.

Please tell us if this helps.

I use entity developper bundled with linq connect 3.0.16

After uninstalling linq connect there are non of the assemblies you mentioned in assembly cache. I removed remaining assemblies from installation folder. Reinstalling does not change anything. The exception still manifests.

Most likely, some assemblies still have not been removed. Please make sure that all Devart.* and policy.*.Devart.* files have been removed from the GAC after uninstalling LinqConnect.
Also, make sure that these folders have been cleared:
- Program Files\Devart\dotConnect and Program Files\Devart\EntityDeveloper;
- Program Files\Common Files\Devart\dotConnect and Program Files\Common Files\Devart\EntityDeveloper;

Then try re-installing LinqConnect again.
If the error still persists after these steps, please specify the following:
- whether you are trying to install any other edition of Entity Developer (not bundled with LinqConnect);
- the version and edition of Visual Studio you are using (in case, you are not using the standalone Entity Developer).

I did a complete disk search, wiped out every single file which had string 'devart' in its name and finnaly it started working.

Glad to see that the issue was resolved. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact us.
