As well as the above, you need to point our assembly to GAC folder (ie C:\Windows\assembly) make sure the version is correct. Make sure the same version is available on client machine.

You haven't really added anything new to the solutions that were posted 6 years ago.
Stick to answering new posts where the OP still needs help

I encountered a similar problem. You most likely have a newer version of Crystal Reports Runtime installed in the machine you are using but your DLLs in your application are referencing the old one hence this message you are getting as it cannot find them.

Remove the old references and add the references of the newer version from one of the following folders.

C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_MSIL
C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_64
C:\Windows\assembly\GAC_32
C:\Windows\assembly\GAC

If you build and/or publish depending on your needs you won't get the error message again.

Cheers!

Not "Global Assembly", but "Global Assembly Cache", GAC. Please formulate your questions accurately, copy/paste real error messages or exception information. The assemblies do not appear in GAC by themselves. :-)

It looks like you need to make Crystal Report redistributable installation a prerequisite for installation of your product.

Please see the main page of SAP Crystal Reports: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/crystalreports-dotnet[^].

On this page, locate "Redist Intallation (32 bit)" or "Redist Intallation (64 bit)" (closer to the end of the page):
http://downloads.businessobjects.com/akdlm/cr4vs2010/CRforVS_redist_install_32bit_13_0_2.zip[^],
http://downloads.businessobjects.com/akdlm/cr4vs2010/CRforVS_redist_install_64bit_13_0_2.zip[^].

This is what you should make your customer to install. You can redistribute required package with your product.
