Re: Could not load file or assembly MySql.Data.dll 0x80131515

Hi Daniel,

I have used in the past Powershell to make some queries and/or execute a couple of commands and haven't had any problems with any .net version. Although I don't have more experience than that using it. By your description I dont't see any reason why it is requiring the 4.5 version of the mysql.data if you're using Powershel 3.0 it should work with .net 4.0 without any problem. I would suggest you to add a configuration file so you can set the version of the framework that you want to use. This way you don't have to alter the version the machine uses or the registry. Simply modify (or create) $pshome\powershell.exe.config so that it contains the following:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0.30319"/>
<supportedRuntime version="v2.0.50727"/>
</startup>
</configuration>

Please give it a try and let us know if this work for you.
