Not possible load assembly due to version

Question

I have this package, Microsoft.AspNet.Web.Optimization, that uses Antlr3.

Once i installed it, Antlr3 came in version 3.4.1.9004.

After that i was checking my installed packages for updates and, by mistake, i updated the Antlr3 to 3.5.0.2. Now, even if i remove all of it, all the packages and reinstall the Microsoft.AspNet.Web.Optimization i still get an error screen because it's referring to the newer version of Antlr3 instead of the old one.

I already tried several other things but nothings seems to solve the problem.

Where can i remove the reference ?

My main error is this one:

Could not load file or assembly 'Antlr3.Runtime' or one of its dependencies. The assembly's manifest definition does not match the located assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)

Did you try a Build->Clean and then a Build->Rebuild on the solution? — Ron Beyer, Apr 22 '15 at 19:36
Yeah, already tried that, also tried remove all the package using prompt and by NuGet Package Control — Ariel, Apr 22 '15 at 19:36
Since you tried things... Can you post fusion log so it is clear which reference is actually causing problems? — Alexei Levenkov, Apr 22 '15 at 19:51
have you tried binding redirect in config https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/7wd6ex19%28v=vs.110%29.aspx — XtremeBytes, Apr 22 '15 at 19:56
There many step-by-step guides... https://www.bing.com/search?q=how+can+i+get+the+fusion+log should give you at least some (ignoring Ford Fusion). — Alexei Levenkov, Apr 22 '15 at 20:33
Thanks for the help Alexei, i managed to fix it using the binding redirect. — Ariel, Apr 23 '15 at 11:31

I managed to fix it by binding it on web.config, changing the version to the one i wanted.

After that i tried removing everything from the project, close VS, remove dll's and add one at a time, it also worked.
