Answer 1

Easiest solution when you get this error in order to restore the missing NuGet.targets in Visual Studio Solution Explorer is to:

1. Right click on the solution file
2. From the context menu click "Enable Nuget Package Restore..." option

this will download the missing files in the ".nuget" folder :)

The above assumes you already have Nuget installed - if not follow the accepted answer above!

UPDATE: Please note for Visual Studio versions beyond 2013 the option is called "Restore NuGet Packages"
