I am simply trying to start a new Web API project. I Selected Individual User Account, and pressed Create.
The error message says:
Package Installation Error
The preinstalled packages have a reference to missing Registry value. Could not find a Registry key name 'WebFormsVS16' under 'Software\NuGet\Repository
I experimented by creating the missing registry by setting the path by hand. Then gets worse. I get a slew of error messages
Package Installation Error
Could not add all required packages to the project. The following packages failed to install from (the path)
The it lists a whole list of messages like
bootstrap. 3.4.1: Unable to find version 3.4.1 of package bootstrap
Newtonsoft.Jason.12.0.2: Unable to find version 12.0.2
It goes on and one with other "unable to find version.." error messages.
I checked my colleague's registries and he does not even have the Software\NuGet registry.
