Another reason to get on latest update of VS 2015

Nuget Extension Issue – VS 2015 Update 1

Well, I think it is about time VS pushes notifications to it’s users to update to latest update available and recommended. 🙂

I was having issues downloading Nuget’s dependent on my project template on VS 2015 Update 1. After my co-worker mentioned he is using a different update version of VS 2015 he is on.  I wanted to give it a try.  Updated to update 3 and boom it started working.

May be it will help someone who is using old update of VS 2015 and having the below issue –

Error was -“Object reference not found”.

So, basically the project template was trying to download Nugets and each Nuget had multiple dependencies which VS update 1 was not able to deal well.

Other option is to download latest version of Nuget Package Extension, some told me even that worked.

Hope, this helps..
