Where is nuget.exe?

Another great option nowadays is to use winget (if you have Windows 10 v1709 or greater). In the Command Prompt, enter:

winget install Microsoft.NuGet

(below follows some extra information for the curious mind) This will:

  1. Install the official nuget.exe in your PC.
  2. Create a Symbolic Link here: %localappdata%\microsoft\winget\links
  3. Make the nuget.exe globally available for your user to call it from anywhere, since the aforementioned directory should be present in your user's PATH variable.

Visual Studio 2015 uses various NuGet assemblies but it does not itself include NuGet.exe.

NuGet.exe can be downloaded from the NuGet web site:
