Hi Seema,The Assembly Manager is used to install and uninstall the
assemblies to and from the GAC and Public Assemblies folder under the installed
location.Refer to the following
documentation link for more information regarding Assembly Manager. https://help.syncfusion.com/common/essential-studio/utilities#assembly-manager Please follow
the below provided steps to install the 2.0
framework assemblies into GAC for the version 8.1.0.30. 1. Download Syncfusion_GacInstaller_v8.1.0.30 and
extract it.  2. By changing the GacInstaller.exe.config file, you can
install the needed frameworks 2.0, 3.5, and 4.0.Type  ->
install(Install assemblies to GAC)          
-> remove(Remove assemblies from GAC)

Note: If you wish to install Framework 3.5\4.0, change the AssemblyPath
and Framework values to 3.5\4.03. Open the command prompt with

We had an issue in latest Windows 10 and Visual Studio 2017 update installed machine. Syncfusion Assembly Manager will detect the .NET Framework version up to 4.0 only. Framework 4.5, 4.5.1 and 4.6 will be in disabled state.

We have already fixed the reported issue at our end and the fix has been included in our 2017 Volume 1 Service Pack 2 release (15.1.0.41).

Also, we have provided patches for this issue for the below Syncfusion versions. Follow the steps suggested below and apply the patch for the respective versions.

1. Download and extract the patch for the required version below.

2. Take a backup of InstallInfoGenerator folder from the below location.

Location:

{ProgramFilesFolder}\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\{version}\Utilities

Example:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Syncfusion\Essential Studio\{version}\Utilities

3. Copy and replace the InstallInfoGenerator folder from the extracted zip file to the above location.

4. Open the command prompt with Administrative privileges (Admin mode).

5. Navigate to the Assembly.bat file from the extracted zip file location and click enter.

6. Open the Syncfusion Dashboard/ Control Panel and click the Recheck button at the bottom.

Syncfusion Dashboard: Start Menu -> Syncfusion Dashboard {Version}

Syncfusion Control Panel: Start Menu -> Syncfusion Control Panel {Version}

7. Launch the Syncfusion Assembly Manager, frameworks 4.5, 4.5.1 and 4.6 will be enabled now. As Syncfusion assemblies for frameworks 4.5, 4.5.1 and 4.6 will not be present in your machine, run the Assembly Manager utility for these frameworks. Now framework 4.5, 4.5.1 and 4.6 assemblies will be installed in GAC. Refer the following documentation link to for more information regarding Assembly Manager.
