Thanks all for your suggestions/help, it really helped me to find the
error.
This is the error I was getting: "Mixed mode assembly is built against
version 'v1.0.3705' of the runtime and cannot be loaded in the 4.0
runtime without additional configuration information." which was
caused due to an assembly I'm using in the application.
Adding those lines to the app.config file solved the problem:
<startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0" /
>
</startup>
If someone wants to know more about it, I invite you to read the
following article:
