Do you have admin privileges? Try opening "Run" as administrator and open "C:\Windows\Assembly" and then do a drag drop. The DLL must be present in the assembly.

Try de registering the DLL and register again by copying the dll and pasting to C:\windows\assembly.

Yes i put that properly.

When i checked physically into C:\\windows\assembly\ my dll file can't find there. But when i checked it with cmd :
C:\Windows\assembly>gacutil.exe /l TestEventHandler

it shows found.

Did you attach the event handler properly in PWA. Double check the Version, Name & PublicKeyToken. Second thing is to put the namespace.class name in appropriate way.

When i saved my project and checked into Event viewer log, getting following problem :-

SEP: Cannot create instance of the receiver class: TestEventHandler, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=426c5990e99ab81c, TestEventHandler.MyEventHandler Exception: Could not load file or assembly 'TestEventHandler, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=426c5990e99ab81c' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.

I checked this dll into gac through cmd command , this file exits.
What to do now ?

You will need to write an event handler that will run on PWA and get fired every time a project is getting updated (Updating event). You will need to check if the updated data is the Project Status column, fire an email and exit from the handler.
