Plug-in assembly does not contain the required types or assembly content cannot be updated

I'm using Crm 2016, I tried to update my plugins.dll and got the message above, when I checked the gaps between my plugins in my dll and my current plugins I found many differences (not normal - too many plugins that weren't added in the last update- the gap isn't normal) after a research I found that a solution has been passed with workflows BUT in the same solution there were many plugins (not associated to the workflows)... now I can't update my dll, after googling for solution to that case I found many recommandations to delete the extra plugin or to add the missing plugin, but my problem is different... has anyone had that situation ? what should I do ? what can I do that's not too risky ? is there a risk about solution with workflows? am I missing something ?

HELP.

    Hello Sahara,

    A little self promotion here, but i realised a plugin in XrmToolBox that will allow you to find out what is missing in your assembly while you try to update it.

    Feel free to use it : "Delta Plugins : Local assembly vs CRM"

    More info about that subject from my experience: This error might happen if there is a plugin in DB (crm) but no class of this plugin (aka using the Iplugin interface) in the dll, need to compare and find that plugin, delete it or add the needed class to your code AKA your DLL
