The Nuget Distribution pages states:
NuGet 4.x is included in the Visual Studio 2017 installation. Latest
NuGet releases are delivered as part of Visual Studio updates.
Batteries are included!
It seems those batteries are flat. In both Package Manager Console and extenal PS windows, when I type nuget, I get the error:
The term 'nuget' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function,
script file, or operable program.
What do I have to do to fix this? If it's installed with VS 2017, surely that install should add it to the PATH variable?
I don't want to use the VS Command Console, even if it is still with 2017, as I have retired all my usage of that relic to PowerShell consoles.
All I had to do was add the location of nuget.exe to the PATH environment variable for my user and all users, The latter is up to you, but I always run VS as Administrator.
Sages of yore used to always advise against doing this, but MS in all their divine wisdom has made life as a web developer using VS so difficult under a non-admin account, I see nary a mention of said advice, even since around VD 2010 even.
You'd think that with Nuget being installed as part of Visual Studio, the least they could do is add amend that bloody variable as part of the VS installation.
I have TFS Server 2012 SP1.
Eclipse 3.6.2 (Helios Service Release 2).
TEE 11.0.0.201211191425
I see a complete team menu, I can check-out and check-in files manually.
However if I just start editing a file it will not be checked out automatically :( as it did with 2010 before updates.
I have tried to change settings to "Display progress while checking out" and "Prompt before checking out" - no effect.
"Detect changes..." functionality does not work either.
Only if I close the project and then open it again, the modified file will be checked out automatically (only once).
wtf???
UPDATE:
The modified file will be checked out automatically also if I manually check-out/check-in another file in the same project.
Problem found
If Visual Studio 2012 is opened on the same PC and connected to the same TFS server, the TEE behaves as described above :(
#Edward Thomson, I think it is a bug. TEE should at least have displayed an error messages.
Not sure about your specific TFS or Visual Studio version, however in VS2010 you have:
File > Source Control > Change Source Control
If your Solution/Project is listed like above with no Server Name, Binding etc., select it and click Bind. That may get things going again
In MS Visual studio, I'm trying to install Nuget packages into my solution.
When I choose the option "Manage Nuget Packages for Solution" and attempt to install a package, I get the message "Unable to connect to the remote server".
I do have Internet connection so do not understand why I always get this message.
Is anyone aware of some steps that can be taken to rectify this issue?
Thanks
Clearing HTTP_PROXY worked for me.
Let me fix it myself

Solved. that's because Visual studio is using fiddler http connection.
all you have to do is to open fiddler=> fiddler option => connection => uncheck "act as system proxy on startup".
thats all!
This started happening to me quite randomly today on Visual Studio 2012. A bit simplistic but, after checking if the Nuget site itself was up and trying the Package Manager Console, my solution was to:
Close and reopen Visual Studio
Suddenly it could connect to the Nuget server again and download my much needed packages.
Tools -> Library Package Manager -> Package Manager Settings -> Clear Package Cache
That worked for me
Clearing the Proxy Cache in IE Fixed this for me. Use these two command lines in the command prompt (run as administrator)
reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings" /v ProxyEnable /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
then
reg delete "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings" /v ProxyServer /f

I solved it on mine by commenting out the
<system.net></system.net>
section from the devenv.exe.config located at
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe.config
Here's how I fixed this issue after none of the suggestions above worked:
Internet Explorer > Tools > Connections > Lan Settings
Uncheck 'Automatically Detect Settings' box. This solved the Nuget Package Manager issue for me. Additionally it fixed another connectivity problem I was having with a VMWare virtual desktop AND... it greatly increased speed in Internet Explorer when trying to connect to secure sites.
I had this issue with VS 2010 package restore even after updating the Nuget Package Manager to the latest and also unselecting all package sources I could. I was getting an error while enabling the Nuget Package Restore option on the solution.
I resolved this by using a different box that didn't have restricted https access to the nuget server. When I used VS 2012 from a different box to enable package restore, it worked fine. I believe it needs to be able to connect to the nuget online server to download the latest nuget.exe used during restore operations. So one option you can use is to perform the Enable Package Restore process from a server that has all the internet access necessary, and then check-in the changes. Once these changes are checked-in, you can then load the solution again from VS 2010 or VS 2012 and use the nuget restore capabilities.
Hope that helps!
Restarted Visual Studio twice solved my problem.
First, I restarted but it did not work. Then, I did almost everything but still didn't work.
Then, restarted again solved my problem.
I had the same symptoms, and apparently visual studio was using some proxy setting set up in IE. It turned out that my problem was one of the following:
My IE had been updated to IE 9, but the update wasn't completed because I hadn't completed the 'update wizard'
Some obscure proxy setting was set up in IE (a remnant of a selenium RC test run)
After completing the update wizard, and clearing all proxy settings, my NuGet package manager was working again.
Had the same issue, it was solution specific, and none of the above worked. I deleted the visual studio solution user options file (.suo) and restarted VS 2013 and now I can update and install packages again.
Finally resolved. I disabled an extension in Chrome. I had installed it to hide my real location.

i could not install globalize in V.S. 2015 and after trying all the answers i tried this. I opened my project in V.S. 2013 and it worked 1st time. hope this helps somebody else
Modem re-start fixed my problem.!
In my case(visual studio 2012-windows10 OS) the problem was with security protocols. Only TLS 1.2 was the enabled protocol and TLS1.1 and TLS1.0 was disabled for some reason. So going into registry and making changes to enable TLS1.0 and TLS1.1 solved the problem.
To enable these protocols you can follow directions on here
I fixed it by uninstall the system proxifier : WideCap
That happened to me when I tried to use Visual Studio from home being connected via public WiFi and my work station was configured to block connections in/out from Internet to VS2017. Check you local firewall setting and ensure that you have Allow for VS2017 when on Public network. (in Windows Defender Firewall & Advanced Security)
nugget.org was blocked in my network for security reason so all the nugget packages are installed from Artifactory via JFrog. After configuring my nugget package manager setting to the link provided by my employer the problem is resolved.
One route that I haven't seen people mentioning is setting the proxy for Nuget in your user folder.
Browse to C:\Users[yourProfile]\AppData\Roaming\Nuget and change your Nuget.config file to the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<config>
<add key="http proxy" value="http://yourProxy.yourCompany.org"/>
</config>
<packageSources>
<add key="nuget.org" value="https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json" protocolVersion="3" />
</packageSources>
</configuration>
We set this setting and then Nuget immediately worked.
Ok, but now I get a credentials prompt!
If you also end up getting a credentials prompt when trying to load packages from Nuget in Visual Studio, you should try to manually browse to http://www.nuget.org/downloads. I've seen proxies like BlueCoat display a Content Filter Warning the first time someone visits a site, and since you can download content from Nuget, it get's flagged.
So you may need to browse there one time to click 'Accept Terms', and then you'll be able to access it.
If you are using a developer server, sometimes the TLS is not active. Reach with regedit.exe the following path of register, and if not present, add the following keys. Reboot and try again nuget online from visual studio.
To enable TLS 1.2 support in Windows Schannel
From Notepad.exe, create a text file named tls12-enable.reg.
Copy, and then paste the following text.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.2]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.2\Client]
"DisabledByDefault"=dword:00000000
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurityProviders\SCHANNEL\Protocols\TLS 1.2\Server]
"DisabledByDefault"=dword:00000000
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
Save the tls12-enable.reg file.
Double-click the tls12-enable.reg file.
Click Yes to update your Windows Registry with these changes.
Restart your computer for the change to take effect.
Internet Properties -> LAN Settings -> uncheck "Automatically detect settings"
Steps:
Close Fiddler.
