Where is microsoft.interop.security.azroles on Server 2008 R2?

Question

As far as I can recall, on Server 2003, microsoft.interop.security.azroles used to live in \"C:\\Windows\\Microsoft.NET\\authman\". On Server 2008 R2, that folder is empty.

Answer 1

I found a copy in a subfolder of C:\Windows\winsxs. I have SQL Server 2008 loaded on this box.

Answer 2

I had the same problem, myself. They've put it back in the GAC, in both 32-bit and 64-bit flavours:

gacutil /l Microsoft.Interop.Security.AzRoles
Microsoft (R) .NET Global Assembly Cache Utility.  Version 4.0.30319.1

The Global Assembly Cache contains the following assemblies:
Microsoft.Interop.Security.AzRoles, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35, processorArchitecture=AMD64
