# Binding Redirects Binding redirects are way of redirecting assembly dependencies in .NET Framework applications. They allow you to load a v1.1.1 version of the library even though your application expects v1.1.0. The redirects are stored in the [[Dotnet Framework Runtime Configuration|app.config XML file]], and can can be automatically generated by MSBuild if `AutoGenerateBindingRedirects` property is set. Binding redirects are only applicable to .NET Framework applications (and not .NET 5 / Core apps). For configuring .NET 5 applications see [[Dotnet Runtime Configuration Files|.NET Runtime Configuration Files]]. For more info on automatic binding redirection see [How to Enable and Disable Automatic Binding Redirection](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/configure-apps/how-to-enable-and-disable-automatic-binding-redirection). For binding redirect configuration specification see [Binding Redirect Element](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/configure-apps/file-schema/runtime/bindingredirect-element).
