Hello Nikolay,

you are probably referring to this:

Manifest:

--- snip ---
...
  <dependency>
    <dependentAssembly dependencyType="preRequisite"
allowDelayedBinding="true">
      <assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft.Windows.CommonLanguageRuntime"
version="4.0.30319.0" />
    </dependentAssembly>
  </dependency>
...
--- snip ---

I couldn't find any documentation how the OS loader handles this but my gut
feeling is that .NET/CLR related runtime dependencies ('ClickOnce' manifests)
are not supposed to be verified here. It's done by .NET CLR bootstrapper
itself.

How about ignoring/skipping .NET related dependencies, that is
'dependentAssembly' with 'dependencyType' and/or 'allowDelayedBinding' set
(these are .NET attributes).

Relying on 'processorArchitecture="msil"' in 'assemblyIdentity' is not safe
enough since the CLR "meta" dependency just has name and version.

Regards
