Global Assembly Cache (GAC) Compare
If you’re doing SharePoint development then you’ve no doubt heard of the GAC, or Global Assembly Cache (c:\windows\assembly) where compiled assemblies are deployed. In a SharePoint farm with several front-ends, you may occasionally find a server with a missing DLL or the wrong version of the assembly.
The following tool makes quick work of trying to find differences in the GAC for remote servers and evens offers up a nifty HTML report. Very nicely done.

A couple things – you need to have Admin rights on the remote computers, the tool does take a while to do the compare (so be patient) and to get the HTML report and other cool features, right-click in the results pane after it has loaded.
