gacutil: Print the content of GAC.
$ gacutil -l
try on your machine

The "gacutil -l" command is used to list the assemblies (also known as DLL files) registered in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC) on a Windows machine. The Global Assembly Cache is a central repository for storing and managing shared .NET assemblies.

When you execute "gacutil -l" in the command prompt or terminal, it will display a list of all the assemblies that are currently installed in the GAC. The list typically includes the assembly name, version, culture, and public key token of each assembly.

This command can be helpful when you need to verify which assemblies are present in the GAC or when troubleshooting issues related to DLL conflicts or missing references in .NET applications.
