  • Well, do you have the solution open? – Ufuk Hacıoğulları Sep 07 '14 at 20:40
  • I have the solution open, but for some reason, VS does not recognize the application @UfukHacıoğulları – Benjamin RD Sep 07 '14 at 20:41
  • Try installing the package from the "Manage NuGet Packages for Solution..." dialog. – Simon Farshid Sep 07 '14 at 20:44

In the package manager console, make sure to select the default project.

If there are no choices, it means that there is no solution file created for your project. When I tested this, I was able to fix the problem by pressing Ctrl + Shift + S (Save all). Visual studio then prompted me to select a directory for my .sln file and NuGet then successfully recognized my solution/project.

Just like Farshid said, it means that there is no solution file created for your project and in order to fix this, press Ctrl + Shift + S. Visual studio will prompt you to select a directory for your .sln file which will in turn make NuGet recognize your solution.
