Restoring NuGet packages taking long?

mxxomxxo ✭
in Questions And Answers

I am following the Holograms 100 tutorial, and I am in the step "Export Visual Studio solution", and I already clicked build on unity. Now it is in the process of building, but it seems to be stuck at "Restoring NuGet packages". I have been waiting for an hour now. Is it normal that it takes so long or am I missing something?

Thanks.

    @mxxo, Having to wait for an hour is much too long for restoring NuGet packages.

    I would recommend closing and restarting Visual Studio. Then clean your solution (Build > Clean Solution) and rebuild.

    Thanks!

    I am having same problem. Problem is not on Visual Studio but on Unity IDE. I am building on Unity so that I can run from Visual Studio. Could you please suggest some help?

    I ran into this yesterday myself and I was not sure what caused it. I tried checking for Visual Studio updates and there were none. Here are the things I realized and resolved, then the problem went away (for me anyway):

    1. Visual Studio was set to verbose logging. This isn't a problem, it was just adding to the length of time due to the number of log messages getting printed. I set it back to 'Normal'. Tools -> Options -> Projects and Solutions -> Build and Run -> MSBuild verbosity settings (two of them).
    2. The HoloLens was pending a system update. This shouldn't have caused any delay in the build portion but may have complicated things during the deployment portion.
    3. Visual Studio was just plain acting weird. When I did Build -> Clean I got an error about a missing file. I rebooted the machine and these VS issues went away.

    Again, your mileage may vary but this is what resolved it for me.

    I simply rebooted my machine and the problem went away. However, the build process still remains quite slow.

    This happened to me as well. I cancelled the build, switched my Scripting Backend from .NET to IL2CPP then tried again and it worked. I'm not sure the Scripting Backend had anything to do with it though.
