Problem:
When installing an assemblies to the GAC you get a message saying that the assembly was successfully installed, then navigating to : "c:\windows\assembly" and cant see the assembly there.
Solution:
When installing assemblies from dot net framework 4.0 the assemblies are stored in a different location then the place they used to be until version 3.5
The new path for the assemblies\dll's is in : C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\assembly\GAC_MSIL.
This folder unlike older dot net versions comes as is (folder\file system)
Whats wrong with my GacUtil?
In order to install the dot net 4.0 assemblies to the GAC you will have to use a newer version of GacUtil, the new version can be found in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\Bin\NETFX 4.0 Tools" ("Program Files" on 32 bit OS).
The old version is good to go until 3.5
