Get all reference assemblies plus reference assemblies of the application reference assemblies and so on

Question

In my ASP.NET application I am getting an error sometimes. When I refresh the page error will be gone. The error is,

Could not load file or assembly 'FSharp.Core, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

I am thinking that some of my app assemblies reference this assembly. Is it possible to get all refrences recursively. I mean, I will get all reference assemblies of my application, all reference assemblies of my application's reference assemblies and so on.

You can use a free AssemblyInfo tool to see the assembly dependency graph.

You can investigate your assemblies for references using a tool like .NET Reflector
