With NuGet, I added Json.NET (Newtonsoft.Json) to my code. As result of a mistake (adding code to CMS, ignoring DLLs, and checking out), my reference DLLs were deleted.
How do I restore ?
I followed all links in this SO question, but nothing brings back the DLLs.
If you still have the packages.config file you should be able to use nuget.exe to restore the packages in the packages folder. You can run nuget install followed by the path to your packages.config file.
This will restore the packages to the packages folder but not modify your project.
If you do not have the packages.config file you could try running nuget install specifying the package id and the version instead.
If you have files in your packages folder you may want to remove those before running this command.
