MvcSiteMapProvider Installation Error - asp.net-mvc

I got this error while installing the sitemapprovider for mvc:
Install-Package : Updating 'Microsoft.AspNet.Razor 3.2.2' to 'Microsoft.AspNet.Razor 2.0.20505.0' failed. Unable to find versions of
'Microsoft.AspNet.WebPages, Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc' that are compatible with 'Microsoft.AspNet.Razor 2.0.20505.0'.

The error indicates you are installing the MvcSiteMapProvider.MVC4 NuGet package, but your project is MVC 5 (because it has Razor 3.2.2). You must install the package that matches your version of MVC (in this case, MvcSiteMapProvider.MVC5) into your project.
PM> Install-Package MvcSiteMapProvider.MVC5
Do note that the MvcSiteMapProvider NuGet package is obsolete and should not be installed into any project unless you intend to use MvcSiteMapProvider v3.x.
If you are upgrading from MvcSiteMapProvider v3 to v4, please see the upgrade guide.

lib.web.mvc installation issue with VS 2017

I am getting the following error while installing the lib.web.mvc.6.8.2 package with VS 2017. It seems there is an issue with the dependency Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc already installed:

I checked the github of this project, and it looks like it is targeting .NET 4.6:
<TargetFrameworkVersion>v4.6</TargetFrameworkVersion>
Lib.Web.Mvc.csproj
But your app is targeting 4.5.2.
So you have few options. One of them is to clone/fork this project and compile targeting 4.5.2. Or simply change your app to 4.6 (if possible?).
Since v6.8.0 release Lib.Web.Mvc requires .NET 4.6+ as it requires HTTP/2 support.
There is a v6.7.x branch which is fix-only branch supporting .NET 4.0+.
If you want to stick to .NET 4.5.2 you will have to use latest 6.7.x version:
PM> Install-Package Lib.Web.Mvc -Version 6.7.1
Alternative is to upgrade your project to .NET 4.6+.

Failed to install umbraco 7.5.4 via Nuget/Package Manager in Visual Studio 2010

PM>
As the error says: You are trying to install this package into a project that targets '.NETFramework,Version=v4.0'. Umbraco depends on ASP.NET MVC 5 which doesn't work on .NET 4.0. In fact, VS2010 does not support .NET 4.5. Instead you will need Visual Studio 2012 or higher.
There is a free community edition download of Visual Studio available if you're a student, open source developer or individual developer.

Not able to install Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Cors from NuGet

I just upgrade my project from Visual Studio from 2010 to 2013 to support Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) in my WebApi.
Now when I am installing Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Cors package from NuGet then I am getting following error.
I am using Visual Studio 2013, Asp.Net MVC 5
PM> Install-Package Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Cors
Attempting to resolve dependency 'Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Core (≥ 5.2.3 && < 5.3.0)'.

I had exact the same problem with another NuGet library.
Please try this steps:
1. Updates
Proof if your installed NuGet version is on the newest version
2. Clear cache
Use the NuGet command prompt and clear the cache:
You can list the local caches with this command:
nuget locals all -list
You can clear all caches with this command:
nuget locals all -clear
3. Check cache
The NuGet Cache is simply a folder on your computer, you can proof delete the remaining files manually under %LOCALAPPDATA%\NuGet\Cache.
Or just run this in administrator CMD:
del %LOCALAPPDATA%\NuGet\Cache\*.nupkg /q
The message says the package is already installed.
try uninstall before to re-install:
Uninstall-Package Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Cors
If that can help someone else, I tried to follow the steps from Steffen Mangold but that's wasn't working completely.
If you have an assembly error like:
System.Web.Http, Version=5.0.0.0
after doing this command Install-Package Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi.Cors
Try that :
1 - Run this in administrator CMD
del %LOCALAPPDATA%\NuGet\Cache\*.nupkg /q
2 - Run this in the Package manager console
Install-Package Microsoft.AspNet.WebApi
That will install missing assemblies and fix the error.
Check the package source.
Go to tools, click on Nuget Package Manager and click on Package Manager settings.
Then go to Package Sources subsection under the Nuget Package Manager section.
In my case the source was initially pointing to a folder on my local machine.
So just add another package source with the following details.
Name : nuget.org
Source : https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json

Could not install EntityFramework 6.1.3

I'm using Visual Studio 2015 and windows 10.
I created a new web project (MVC) with no authentication, I Tried to install EntityFramework 6.1.3 with this command in package manager "Install-Package EntityFramewor" but I got this error :

Failure of Castle Winsor 3.0 NuGet installation

I'm trying to install Castle Windsor 3.0 using NuGet, and it fails with the following message:
PM> Install-Package Castle.Windsor
'Castle.Core (≥ 3.0.0)' not installed. Attempting to retrieve dependency from source...
Done.
Install-Package : Id is required.
Version is required.

+ Install-Package <<<< Castle.Windsor

+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : NuGetCmdletUnhandledException,NuGet.Cmdlets.InstallPackageCmdlet
I've tried it both using the command-line (above) and using the Library Package Manager.
My environment is a default MVC3.0 installation, using the web site template, in Visual Studio 2010, with absolutely nothing changed from the defaults.
The error looks like there is something wrong with the package being downloaded from NuGet.
Can anyone shed any light on this? I can work around it with a manual install of Castle Windsor, but would like to use NuGet if possible.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Update NuGet to the latest version. I recently upgraded from 1.3 to 1.6, but had to completely reinstall (as administrator) to get my project working. I think it was for a FluentValidation.MVC3 project I was whipping up.
I had the same problem even having the latest version of NuGet. I had to settle for:
Install-Package Castle.Core -Version 2.5.2
