Re: I can't install Cobra [gacutil error]
In the source code for the installer, we have:
Given that 7.1 was for Visual Studio 2010 and 6.0A was for VS 2008, I'm not sure where 7.0A lies, but it seems rather old.
Would you be opposed to install Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition and then trying again?
Alternatively, you could tweak the source code of the installer to include your path.
