How to find regasm location on a machine

I am creating an installer that registers .NET assemblies to COM using regasm. Different clients will have different Microsoft.Net versions installed on their machines. I need to know the regasm location in advance to use it.

Should I look for it only in the following locations or is there any other possible location too?

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\ C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.0.xxx\ C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.xxxx\

Could it instead be present in the following location?

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET**Framework64**\vx.x.x

Solution

  • Yes, it's in both folders.

    C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\RegAsm.exe C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\RegAsm.exe C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\RegAsm.exe C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\RegAsm.exe
