2 identical projects, one works, one does not

I have a solution, made up of more than one project, and I have 2 copies of the projects. in one, everything works, in the other, which is identical (using winmerge) it does not work. and it's completely the same. although when run the dll files comes different, but that's because of the time probably. when the projects are swapped in the solution itself it does not work any way.

What should I do? I feel hopeless. I need the one that is not working to work.

You could start by explaining what you mean by does not work. That gives no information at all to hlep anyone to make a guess as to what the problem may be. Explain what your code is doing and what errors occur, including full details of error messages, fail codes etc.

There isn't an error. It's a wpf program. and in one a graph is loaded, and in the other the whole program works ok but the graph is not loaded. and the code is completely identical. I don't know why it's doing it. :'(

I don't know why it's doing it.
Without some more information I don't think anyone else can guess. You say both versions are identical and then state that one version uses different DLLs; so they are not identical. My only suggestion is to get your debugger running and trace through the program to see what is going on.

Its not clear you mean by the fact that dll files come different.
These should be the same as well to run the project.

I know they should. But they don't. i merge them so that they become equal. and then i run both of them, and when i merge again, the dll are different. what do think is the problem? I 've never came accross this. It's out of my bounds.
