I have installed newtonSoft.json version 6.0.0.0 but I am getting the following error:

Could not load file or assembly 'Newtonsoft.Json, Version=8.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=30ad4fe6b2a6aeed' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)

I do not want to keep NewtonSoft version 6.0.0.0 and do not want to upgrade that. Please suggest me how to resolve the problem.

What assemblies have you referenced? Do they depend on NS.Json version 8? – Patrick Hofman
No there is no assembly that depend on that.. – Ali Nafees
Take a look at your app/web.config there may be an assembly redirect pointing at version 8.0.0.0 – phuzi
No there is not such thing. I already have checked that – Ali Nafees
We've had some really strange dependency issues with Newtonsoft.Json lately. Even if you don't have an assembly redirect pointing at the wrong version, I'd suggest adding one that points at the right version. – azurefrog

You use another library that reference to a newer version of Newtonsoft.

Why you don't want to upgrade to version 8.0.0?
