when using the PSToolkit provided with SnapCenter, I very often get this error when importing the DataOntap.C.dll module under the PSTOOLKIT:
PS C:\Windows\system32> Import-Module "C:\Program Files\NetApp\SMCore\SAL\PSToolkit\DataONTAP.C.dll"
Import-Module : Could not load file or assembly 'Newtonsoft.Json, Version=13.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=30ad4fe6b2a6aeed' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

there is no newtonsoft in the PSTOOLKIT directory. I even tried to grab the file from the smcore directtory but that does not change anything either.
I am trying this in the LAB but customers hit same issues. in some lab it works though. I suppose different versions.
but how do I tackle this problem for good when I hit it?
without reinstalling .Net or anything disruptive like that please, as I would give same piece of advice to customers.
it would be nice to know.
Domenico.
