WAtin :Could not load file or assembly

Am getting this error : "Could not load file or assembly 'Interop.SHDocVw, Version=1.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=db7cfd3acb5ad44e' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)"

I know many people already asked about it, but I've tried all the solutions suggested and still nothing! Am Using VS2010, .NET framework version 4, and am trying to use WATin along with Web browser control.

I've tried all the suggested solutions here WatiN System.IO.FileNotFoundException Interop.SHDocVw

c#
.net
visual-studio-2010
watin

This might be a bit of a long shot. Bring up your project properties and double check that your Target Framework (on the Application tab) is set to ".NET Framework 4", not ".NET Framework 4 Client Profile".

Right click on Interop.SHDocVw in the project references. Change Embed Interop Types to False and then set Copy Local to True. Worked for me.
