Show GAC Detail The GAC view in Windows Explorer ususally shows a special view instead of all the real subdirectories you can see if you go to the DOS prompt. With a little registry tweak, you can use Windows Explorer to navigate the GAC.

The following registry script will change the GAC view to detail. Put it in a file and end it with .reg:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Fusion]
"DisableCacheViewer"=dword:00000001

To restore it to the normal GAC view, just change the value back to 0:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Fusion]
"DisableCacheViewer"=dword:00000000  ¶ 1:54 PM
