I am facing a problem with my project.
The type or namespace name 'System' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?
This has happened before and I solved it by reinstalling the Nuget Package Manager using a command. Unfortunately, I am not finding that command again. I tried to find the solution online but everything I am getting is installing/reinstalling NuGet packages and not package manager.
Found this article: https://forums.asp.net/t/1776324.aspx?How+to+install+upgrade+VS+NuGet+Package+Manager+ but It's not applicable here.
NuGet Package Manager is preinstalled in VS2019 and no separate package to download and install. Also, there's not Extension Manage in VS2019 like older versions.
Please Let me know the command to reinstall NuGet Package Manager in Visual Studio 2019.
Such nuget restore issues can normally fix by deleting the obj folder where the nuget files like project.assets.json, projectname.csproj.nuget.g.targets, projectname.csproj.nuget.g.props, projectname.csproj.nuget.dgspec.json and projectnamecsproj.nuget.cache are stored.
If this still doesn't fix it, delete the hidden .vs folder inside the solution, where Visual Studio stores the user settings for the project.

I have a freshly set up Umbraco 7.13.2 project in VSCode (not visual studio) using the following method:
https://umbraco.tv/videos/umbraco-v7/implementor/fundamentals/installation/spin-umbraco-cms-up-using-vs-code/
I am now trying to install the nuget package UmbracoCms.RestApi v0.9
I am getting the following error:
Cannot find any .csproj or .fsproj file for your project! Please fix this error and try again.
My question:
Is there a way to install these nuget packages that require a .csproj file in VSCode or will I have to use Visual Studio?
How can I install nuget packages for my PowerShell Projects in Visual Studio 2015? I have tried to do it with both the PowerShell Module Project and PowerShell Script Project. I have installed PowerShell Tools for Visual Studio 2015.
When I open these projects, the Default project in the Package Manager Console is empty. Here is a screenshot of what I mean.
When I try to install a nuget package, e.g. Pester, I get the following error.
I know this thread might be outdated and is rather old but my older article with some possible solutions might help here. I tested current state and still, no support inside VS 2015 for PowerShell project and NuGet packages together.
the current state is :
go with https://chocolatey.org/ and install it on your dev box (and CI) => you install pester globally with : choco install pester and update it if needed.
use old packages.config and update by hand version number and run nuget restore (nuget update will no longer work for this type of solution).
version whole pester into repo and call it directly. you can use nuget install pester for this (if you have nuget in path somewhere)

I installed the Visual Studio 2015 yesterday on my work machine and map a project from TFS that i was working on the previous version (VS 2013). All the projects in this solution are build on top of .NET framework 4.5.1 . When i try to make a Restore Nuget Packages it says that all the packages in the packages.config files are downloaded already, but im getting a lot of compilation errors. The Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data; reference for example, its declared on the packages.config file but im getting the 'red' error on the using clause of this reference in visual studio.
There´s other package that the nuget says it is installed but in the references its possible to see an yellow triangle. And this package is on the packages.config too.
Is that something different in this new versio of nuget?
Ps. I already installed the update of the nuget program.
I just inherited a large enterprise system that appears to use NuGet.
I have just read the basics on what NuGet is so pardon the simpleness of my questions.
Is there a way to tell NuGet to update and install all the packages needed to run the system? I am right now running and seeing what fails then guessing what NuGet packages are missing.
(No, there was no documentation in the enterprise system or many code comments, ugh)
From the package manager console try Update-Package –Project ProjectName
Visual Studio -> Tools -> Library Package Manager -> Package Manager Console

If the solution is configured to enable Nuget Package Restore you could also just delete the packages folder and rebuild all which would get everything that you needed. If you need to worry about javascript, configuration, etc... I would try the Update-Package route
I recently installed Visual Studio on a new computer and as a result I now have Nuget 1.5.2. This version doesn't seem to work with my old solution. When I add a new project and try adding references via Nuget, it says they are already installed and does nothing, even though that reference doesn't exist in the new project.
Does anyone know why this might be happening or alternatively where I can download the old Nuget (1.4.2)?
Thanks!
The NuGet Command Line is available as a NuGet package.
Just like with any other NuGet package, you can get a specific version by using the -Version switch in the Package Manager Console.
To get v1.4.2 of the NuGet command line tool, you should execute the following PowerShell script from the Package Manager Console:
Install-Package Nuget.CommandLine -Version 1.4.20615.182
