Problem
In a particular project, I can't update or install any NuGet packages. When I try to do so using the NuGet GUI, it does some work and then stops without saying anything. When I try to do so using the package manager console, I get this output:
PM> Update-Package –reinstall EntityFramework
Attempting to gather dependencies information for multiple packages with respect to project 'SmartCentre', targeting '.NETFramework,Version=v4.5.2'
Update-Package : An item with the same key has already been added.
