Unable to build Certify - This project references NuGet package(s) that are missing on this computer

[robertstrom]

Hello,

Let me start off stating that I am far from a Visual Studio expert but I have successfully built projects before, including Rubeus.

I have installed Visual Studio 2019 Community Edition and I have downloaded the project, opened the project, and then selected "Release" (as opposed to "Debug") and then selected Build and I am getting the error below (as well as several others - see screenshot).

Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
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\dnMerge.0.5.15\build\dnMerge.targets. Certify C:\Users\rstrom\source\repos\Certify-main\Certify\Certify.csproj 129

Hopefully this is either something really stupid that I am not doing correctly or something easy to fix. Really looking to get this built so that I can do testing and the necessary validation of fixes.

Thanks much!

If anyone facing the same error, then it could be solved using following option,
1- Go to Tools -> NuGet Package Manager -> Package Manager Settings
2- Go to package source -> add source (+ sign on right upper corner) and add "https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/" in source.
The error which I was getting because VS was looking for the assembly locally. So, when you add online source, it could go out and load the dependency(if found). Hope this help others.

In a basic cmd.exe shell:

git clone https://github.com/GhostPack/Certify
cd Certify
nuget install Certify\packages.config -OutputDirectory packages
msbuild /t:Build /property:Configuration=Release
