Since you haven't shown any code or other details, and you seem confused about which class you're trying to use, we can only offer general advice.

The System.Web.HttpUtility class is defined in the System.Web assembly for .NET Framework, and the System.Web.HttpUtility assembly for .NET Core / .NET 5. You need to make sure you have added a reference to the relevant assembly, not just imported the namespace.

The System.Net.WebUtility class is defined in the System assembly for .NET Framework, the System.Runtime.Extensions assembly for .NET Core, and the System.Runtime assembly for .NET 5. Again, you need to ensure you have a reference to the correct assembly before trying to use it.

Solution 2

Hi,

you can use

System.Net.Webutility

I encountered this issue in .net 4.5.2 (using VS2019). and this solved by replacing

System.Web.Utility with System.Net.Webutility

You Can find details in this Link

I Hope This will Help you.

Thanks
