'Blocked in work with VS 2022 .NET Core 6: "Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.DataAI.NuGetRecommender.Contracts"
I can not use NuGet Package Manager because in the package browse window I got the Error occurred message. Clicking "Show errors in output" gives:
Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.data.NuGetRecommender.Contracts, Version=2.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
Using the latest 17.0.1 version.
- No google searches give valuable results.
- As a workaround can I somehow turn off NuGet recommendations?
Solution 1:[1]
You can try to disable or reinstall (although it seems it also has some issues currently) the NugetRecommender extension:
The missing file should be in extension directory:
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\Common7\IDE\CommonExtensions\Microsoft\NuGetRecommender\
You can try to download the nuget package and copy the missing dll there.

BTW, not sure if you have solved this yet, but I was getting the exact same error having all of my extensions disabled. I turned back on the one called "NuGetRecommender" and it worked perfectly! Hope that helps
