Package requires NuGet client version '2.12'

Question

I am trying to install \'WindowsAzure.Storage 8.0.1\' in visual studio 2012, but getting the error

package requires NuGet client version \'2.12\' or abov

Answer 1

This fix worked for me(I am using vs 2013, not sure if it will work for the rest), Go to Tools --> Extensions and Updates, then look for NuGet package manager for visual studio 2013, uninstall it. In the left pane select online which will take you to visual studio gallery, in the right pane search for NuGet package manager for visual studio 2013, it will bring you the right version to install. Install that and you are good to go, hope this sorts someone out.
