    I am trying to upgrade from 9.10.0 to 9.10.2 but upon unzipping the package I get this error:

    Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.Abstractions, Version=2.2.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=adb9793829ddae60

    *I will include the full message at the bottom. 

    I unblocked the zip before extracting. I searched and found similar errors related to 2sxc and so I removed it; although I am not sure it is fully or properly removed as I ran into errors with that also. Right now it 2sxc modules are not in my extensions list though. This DNN instance is running on Windows 2012 server with IIS 8 and DNN shows the .NET version as 4.8. 

    Has anyone encountered this error and found a solution? 

    *****Here is the full error*****

      Have a look at the /bin folder of your installation. Do you see a file called Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.Abstractions.dll? If yes, right click the file, go to properties and check on the Details tab if the file version is 2.1.1.18157. Then you have the file that is delivered with DNN 09.10.02.

      Your error message indicates that a newer version of this assembly is needed: Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.Abstractions, Version=2.2.0.0 - therefore I think that you have an extension installed that is dependent on this newer version. Check the file in your DNN 09.10.00 installation (or backup), and if this has version 2.2.0.0 copy it over the existing file in your DNN 09.10.02 installion.

      Does that help?

      Happy DNNing!

        Yes! That worked. Thank you very much.

        I made a copy of the 2.2.0 version so I could copy it back into the bin folder after the upgrade extraction.

          Glad I could help!

          Anyway you should try to find out which extension installed the newer assembly over the existing one in DNN and tell the vendor. Otherwise you will have an error like this on every upgrade (until DNN moves to that newer DLL), and in my eyes it is not a good practice to use newer assemblies that the existing ones and overwrite files that exist in DNN.

          As a DNN upgrade package is the same as the install package without the web.config file you will always overwrite existing files when unzipping the package.

          Happy DNNing!
