Cannot install web grease via nuget because of permission access - asp.net

I want to configure bundling to my new project. I have configured my project with TFS online but I cannot add any packages via nuget and always get this error.
The item F:\Project\MOC\packages\WebGrease.1.5.2\lib\WebGrease.dll could not be found in your workspace, or you do not have permission to access it.
The item F:\Project\MOC\packages\WebGrease.1.5.2\tools\install.ps1 could not be found in your workspace, or you do not have permission to access it.
The item F:\Project\MOC\packages\WebGrease.1.5.2\tools\uninstall.ps1 could not be found in your workspace, or you do not have permission to access it.

This maybe a nuget bug with older version. More details ,please refer the thread from GitHub: Install package fails when solution/project is bound to TFS source control
The bug is during uninstalling packages, nuget will delete package
files from TFS, but if user set disableSourceControllntegration to
true, package files are not added to TFS workplace during installing,
so TFS can't find those files during uninstalling,
The fix is to check disableSourceControlIntegration before deleting
package files from TFS.
Source Link: TFS Error "[file]not be found in your
workspace...."
Also suggest you to update your nuget version to latest and try again.

Brand new Monodevelop installation can't restore packages

I'm trying to use MonoDevelop in order to work with .NET Core. In a brand new Linux Mint 20.1 machine, I installed MonoDevelop 7.8.4, and opened a project that I'm working on, and the IDE complained imediatelly:
Getting restore information for solution /home/REDACTED/project.sln
ApplicationName='/usr/bin/mono64', CommandLine='"/usr/lib/mono/msbuild/15.0/bin/MSBuild.dll" "/tmp/NuGetScratch/3r24uwj4.84i.nugetinputs.targets" /t:GenerateRestoreGraphFile /nologo /nr:false /v:q /p:RestoreBuildInParallel="False" /p:RestoreUseSkipNonexistentTargets="False"', CurrentDirectory='/home/REDACTED', Native error= Cannot find the specified file
The file /usr/bin/mono64 does not exist. Anyone knows how I can fix this?
UPDATE
When I try tobuild the project, it fails with the followiing error:
Error: NuGet packages need to be restored before building. NuGet MSBuild targets are missing and are needed for building. The NuGet MSBuild targets are generated when the NuGet packages are restored. (My.App)
This seems to be connected with the previous error message.
I have just installed Ubuntu and for anyone interested I found a solution.
In /usr/bin, make a mono64 symlink to mono-sgen. mono is already a symlink to that.
I will investigate the other tools suggested.

Couldn't install any packages .Net Framework NuGet

I have a solution with a lot of projects targeting .net framework but not any with .core NuGet. The case is that, quite occasionally I started getting the following error while trying to set up any package from manage NuGet packages
HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component
Did someone run into the same issue and how you managed to resolve it
Go to your C:\Users\{USER}\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio folder, and you should find a folder in there called 15_{id}. Open it, and have a look at the ActivityLog.xml. If you have a look in it you should find the error in there and the library that's causing it. In my case it was caused by Microsoft.visualstudio.shell.interop.IVsReferenceManager2 within the Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.11.0.dll library.
This post helped me solve the issue then: Msdn forum
1.Open "Developer Command Prompt for VS 2017" as Admin
2.CD into "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Professional\Common7\IDE\PublicAssemblies"
3.Run "gacutil -i Microsoft.VisualStudio.Shell.Interop.11.0.dll"
After a restart, it all worked well.

VIsual Studio 2017 NuGet package installs well but is not recognized

I have Solution A which has a .NET Core 1.1 class library project. In the Package properties I filled all NuGet fields and selected to create the NuGet upon successful build. This project builds just fine and the NUPKG is created. BTW How can I automatically copy the generated NUPKG to a local directory (my own repository)?
Then I have Solution B which is an ASP.NET Core 1.1 web application. In it I browse to my local repository (where I have manually copied the NUPKG built by Solution A) and install my SolutionA.MyPackage into the web application. VS.2017 says it was successful at installing it. I see it listed in the project's NuGet dependencies.
However, when I try to use ANY of the objects defined in that NuGet package I get a red highlight saying it is not found as if there was no NuGet or assembly reference to that DLL but there is!
What is causing this Visual Studio generated Nuget package to be installed and yet act as if it has not even been referenced?
UPDATE - CSPROJ TARGET
As for copying to my local repository, I added this to CSPROJ but it was not working (somebody had suggested it as I put it). I finally figured out why it did not work, the ItemGroup must be inside the Task.
<Target Name="CopyPackage" AfterTargets="GenerateNuspec">
<ItemGroup>
<MyPackageFiles Include="bin\Release\PackageId.*.nupkg" />
</ItemGroup>
<Copy SourceFiles="#(MyPackageFiles)" DestinationFolder="D:\My Repository\MyNugget\Publish" />
</Target>
UPDATE NuGet Inspection
I opened the NUPKG with NuGet Package Explorer and it shows this more or less:
content\
Properties\
launchSettings.json
Views\
Shared\
rest of my stuff here
contentFiles\
any\
netcoreapp1.1\
Properties\
launchSettings.json
Views\
Shared\
rest of my stuff here
lib\
netcoreapp1.1 (.NEtCoreApp, Version=v1.1)
MyPackage.dll
UPDATE 3
Since NuGet seems to have stopped working (used to work well earlier) I opted for using an Assembly Reference rather than a NuGet (for now). In this situation something odd happens, when coding I can reference ALL the objects in the referenced assembly (former NuGet) and therefore no compilation errors on the main project BUT when I then run the web application I get an internal error because it says
FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly
'MyPackage, Version=0.0.3.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null'.
The system cannot find the file specified.
Unknown location
Which is strange because in the Solution Explorer I see the assembly reference and when I click on it (main application) I can navigate to all the objects that I have defined in that assembly. Why it cannot find it anymore?
It is working again (as it was before!). Today I could open the solutions but when I tried to download an extension (Tools | Extensions) I got an error message about an Access Denied or something like that. It has happened before since I installed to VS.2017.
Of all the Visual Studios I have used since 2002 this has been the most unstable! (and I have update 15.2).
When I saw this error happening again I knew how to get rid of it and thought, "hey, maybe that is what is keeping the NuGet package to be installed but not found or the problem with a direct assembly reference".
So I went to my C:\Users\AppData\USER\Local\Microsoft\VisualStudio\15.2* folder and removed it completely.
After that I the ACCESS DENIED issue went away with the side effect that I had to reinstall all extensions again. I attempted again to install my own NuGet, it did so successfully and as expected (was not happening during the long glitch) the objects were found and the web application worked again.

NuGet packages not found after sync from GitHub

We (me and three other people) will make an ASP.NET MVC application and use GitHub for version control. We've added some NuGet packages like Unity.MVC5.
Person one has commit and sync the project to the master branch. He's got no problems. The other three people sync the branch but they got problems with the NuGet libaries. See errors below:
Error: This project references NuGet package(s) that are missing on this computer. Use NuGet Package Restore to download them. For more information, see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=322105. The missing file is ..\packages\Microsoft.CodeDom.Providers.DotNetCompilerPlatform.1.0.0\build\Microsoft.CodeDom.Providers.DotNetCompilerPlatform.props.
Error: Metadata file D:\...\MarkeOnlineWebsite\MarkeOnline.Website\bin\MarkeOnline.Website.dll could not be found
Warning: The referenced component ... could not be found.
Update: I've also added this .gitignore file.
How could we solve this problem?

Ajax Control Toolkit, Visual Studio 2013, Nuget: AjaxControlToolkit.dll is missing

I tried to add the actual Ajax Control Toolkit to an .Net 4.5.1 WebSite. All the dependencies seem to be properly installed but the AjaxControlToolkit.dll file is not there.
I tried to uninstall and reinstall the package with the NuGet Console in Visual Studio 2013 and it always looks to be successful, but also always that dll is missing. Also restarting VS did not help.
In the packages.config the entry for the dll with version 8.0.0.0 is there and also in the packages directory there a directory AjaxControlToolkit.8.0.0.0. but only the AjaxControlToolkit.8.0.0.0.nupkg and the readme.txt files are there.
Any idea, what went wrong or what I could do?
Start a command prompt and run dir c:\ajaxcontroltoolkit.dll /s to see if the file is somewhere on your system. If it is, then copy it to the project's bin folder.
If it's not on your hard drive, go to http://ajaxcontroltoolkit.codeplex.com/releases/view/116091, download the version in question, and copy the .dll from the package to the project's bin folder.
In the back of my mind it seems that I ran into this a couple of weeks ago, also, so there may be a bug in NuGet.
Version 8.0.0.0 of the NuGet package is broken.
Update 15.1.2 is available.
P.S. Dependencies are extracted into separate packages (AjaxControlToolkit.HtmlEditor.Sanitizer, AjaxControlToolkit.StaticResources)
