Nuget crash in visual studio 2015

Package manager console crash in visual studio 2015 enterprise just after start with error:

Windows PowerShell updated your execution policy successfully, but the setting is overridden by a policy defined at a more specific scope. Due to the override, your shell will retain its current effective execution policy of RemoteSigned. Type "Get-ExecutionPolicy -List" to view your execution policy settings. For more information please see "Get-Help Set-ExecutionPolicy".

I have tryied a lot of things like like setting execution policy in power shell to remoteSigned but nothing helped, nuget still don't work.

Any one have the same issue? Thanks for any advance.

I get the following error in VS 2013 under Tools\Nuget package Manager\ Package Manager console....

Issue:Windows PowerShell updated your execution policy successfully, but the setting is overridden by a policy defined at a more specific scope. Due to the override, your shell will retain its current effective execution policy of Unrestricted. Type "Get-ExecutionPolicy -List" to view your execution policy settings. For more information please see "Get-Help Set-ExecutionPolicy

I uninstalled the Nuget Package manager using Tools\Extension and Updates uninstalled the Nuget Package Manager.

Reinstalled the package manager from below location to solve the issue.

After a completely clean install of Visual Studio Professional 2015 from the MSDN Website, I ran VS2015 as Administrator, opened up the Package Manager Console from Tools -> NuGet Package Manager... -> Package Manager Console and I received this error:

Windows PowerShell updated your execution policy successfully, but the setting is overridden by a policy defined at a more specific scope. Due to the override, your shell will retain its current effective execution policy of Unrestricted. Type "Get-ExecutionPolicy -List" to view your execution policy settings. For more information please see "Get-Help Set-ExecutionPolicy

By following the above steps to:

  1. Use Tools -> Extensions and Updates... to uninstall NuGet Package Manager for Visual Studio 2015.

  2. Restart Visual Studio.

  3. Use Tools -> Extensions and Updates... to re-install NuGet Package Manager for Visual Studio 2015.

  4. Restart Visual Studio.

Now when I open up the Package Manager Console, Powershell loads correctly and every thing is good. Hopefully this helps without having to override or set the execution policy.

I had the same issue and found solution that worked for me: set execution policy to "Undefined" in all scopes (Remove registry key for Machine and User scopes if they are set by domain policy) and then restart VS and open Package Manager Console.

Edit: path to key I deleted:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\PowerShell

Key: ExecutionPolicy

This command line can be used to automate the process (run as admin), until issue is fixed: 

reg delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\PowerShell /v ExecutionPolicy /f
