TFS204018 error when installing NuGet Package in VS2015

Whenever I install a NuGet package in a TFS source-controlled VS 2015 project, I get a message similar to the following output under "Source Control - Team Foundation":

TF204018: Could not check the file's encoding because the file C:\TFS\Oz.Interfaces\Main\Source\MVRSTamperCodes\MVRSTamperCodes.Web\web.config is in use.

I've been searching fruitlessly to see if there's a way to fix this issue and haven't found anything yet. Does anyone know what is causing this message and/or what steps I can take to fix it? I should note that this doesn't prevent the successful installation of the NuGet package so it appears to just be a warning or informational message.

If you're using Team Foundation Server, you will need to first check out the entire project, before updating Nuget Packages for the project, if you have this problem.

I've met similar issue with blocking web.config and other files. My solution was:

  1. Uninstall NuGet Package Manager (Tools -> Extensions and Updates)
  2. Install newest version (currently: Nuget 3.2)
