Opening project in Visual Studio fails due to nuget.targets not found error
- Install Nuget.
- Right click on the solution and select "Enable NuGet Package Restore". In Visual Studio 2013 and later, select "Restore NuGet Packages" instead.
- Click Ok on the warning.
- Close and re-open the solution.
Should now be hunky-dory.
An alternative is to edit the .csproj file with a texteditor and remove or comment out the segment.
