Answer 1

I think you require this code, add it into your web.config

<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
    <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/>
</startup>

Pretty sure this is on google, it maybe a duplicate (will search after answering)

EDIT:

You may have to edit your .Net setting within your build configuration. Maybe try uninstalling the crystal assemblies - set .Net 4 and reinstall (assuming you weren't already on .Net 4) – n34_panda yesterday

it's for web application and work in asp.net web.config. – Rhizo

Add it into your .config: erickwidya.blogspot.co.uk/2011_05_01_archive.html – Rightly

windows application do'es not contain .config file. other solution – Rhizo

Answer 2

It's working for me.

I added the App.config file to my application (window) and then added the below tag inside the configuration tag.

<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
    <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/>
</startup>

Please go to your app.config and check if useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy is there or not either add this as follow.

<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true"> 
    <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.5" />

</startup>

Problem Statement:

• The project was created with an old version of the Crystal Report.
• The latest / updated / newest version of Crystal Report is installed on the current working computer.
• The installed version of Crystal Report is not compatible with the old version.
• Some configurations are needed to be made in the current project to resolve this error

Solution 1:

• [In Visual Studio] project’s References > Right-click CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine > select Properties. In the properties window, Copy the shown version of the Crystal Report. ** The CR version shown in properties is different than the installed version**
• Open Web.Config File
• Replace old CR version 13.0.xx00.0 for all the assemblies in the web config, with the copied version from Reference properties

Solution 2:

• Open Web.Config File
• Add tag right before the closing tag. Write old and new version of CR.

<runtime>
  <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn: schemas-   
     Microsoft-com:asm.v1">

    <dependentAssembly>
      <assemblyIdentity name=  
         "CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine" 
         publicKeyToken=“xxx" culture="neutral"/>

          <bindingRedirect oldVersion="13.0.2000.0" 
            newVersion="13.0.3500.0"/>
    </dependentAssembly>

</assemblyBinding>  
</runtime>
