I did a completely clean install.  I have read all that I could on this error, and followed the suggestions by Sebastian, Nina Meiers and read the article by Joe Brinkman, and everything seems to be there.  The correct .dll files seem to be in the correct places.  The modules it is calling seems to be where it is being called from.  It seems that the version it is calling is the version it is.  By now you can probably tell I am not a developer, not a programmer, and I feel NOT very clever, actually feel stupid.  I cannot work it out, please can someone help me with detailed help, taking into consideration that I need a do this or that, no assumptions thatI know what I am doing please.

Could not load file or assembly 'Telerik.Web.UI' or one of its dependencies. The module was expected to contain an assembly manifest.

A couple of simple checks you can do:
1. You may have an issue with "File Blocking" courtesy of Windows. If you write click the DotNetNuke_Community_05.05.00_Install.zip package and select "Properties" then look at the lower right corner of the "Properties" dialog box and see if you see an "Unblock" button. Click it and follow the directions...
2. Are you using the DotNetNuke_Community_05.05.00_Install.zip package? The error you're getting makes me ask if you might have run the upgrade package, DotNetNuke_Community_05.05.00_Upgrade.zip, by mistake.

I did find a reference to the exact error message your are seeing. However, they talk about changes done at the code level within a site so if your site has not had any developer work done on it the workarounds would not apply.

Best advice would be to actually delete the website from IIS, delete the web folder and start from scratch.

Hi
This has happened to me few times when upgrading from previous versions, the problem could be due to either missing or wrong version of Telerik.Web.Ui.dll
Try downloading source package for version 5.05.01 and locate the file in the bin folder (Install 5.05.01\Library\Components\Telerik\bin\) - upload it to the bin folder on your site overwring dll file already there. The size of the file should be around 17,000 kb
You can see that you have wrong version if the size is 15,000kb or 13,000 kb
This worked for me.

Thanks Ken, Matt.
I'll try both of those (not the start from scratch yet, because my sense is it will be the same again...) will let you know when I have.  I am curious to try the v 5.5.1 (.dll) and see if that sorts it.
Thanks so much for the time taken to reply, I am really grateful to you guys.
