I'm writing a custom WCF proxy generator. Had it working perfectly until I added more code and changed the version and resigned it. When I executed the addin, I get file not found COM error. When I launched Fuslogvw it reported it couldn't find an the old version assembly with a different version and public key. Is there something I am doing wrong, I managed to find the correct version in the GAC.
The relevant error message is this:
=== Pre-bind state information ===

For your information, I installed my assembly in the GAC using GAC utils and registered the assembly using the following:
