System.IO Exception after IIS deployment

Question

MVC 5 project after IIS deployment on browse returns "Could not load file or assembly 'System.IO' or one of its dependencies". Things I have tried via stackoverflow and googling are

1. Clean & Rebuild solution
2. Deleting bing & obj folders
3. Setting website folder access to IIS Users with full access
4. Removing & adding the System.IO.dll
5. Setting propertygroup under .csproj file

Please can anyone help me in getting the cause.

Application is working fine on local machine with no errors. But getting the above error on IIS deployment.
