I have a requirement where I need to add Entity Framework DLL From external folder

What I have tried:

First I installed Entity framework version 6.1.3 from Nuget package console

After getting new requirement I deleted already Installed DLL from references and added existing DLL from the folder

I checked the path of the DLL by going to the properties of the DLL and its showing same path of the folder

Now My question is Do I need to declare any ASSEMBLY details in Web Config file In order to reflect the new DLL changes, here I am not sure the DLL is installed one or reference from the folder

try uninstall and reinstall through the Nuget, that will take care of everything.

In the same properties window, change option "copy local" to true and see if the problem solved.
