Answer 1

In my case, I was getting this problem when trying to run a UWP (Universal Windows Platform) project, and the solution was to select "Developer mode" in the Windows 10 Settings "For Developers"

Answer 2

Really strange issue, in my case, I had to change my default network DNS(network card) from 8.8.8.8 to 208.67.222.222.

After that I was able to update Microsoft.NETCore.UniversalWindowsPlatform.

Unable to load package 'Microsoft.Net.Native.SharedLibrary-x64'

It is hard to make sure that whether this issue is related to the internet connection, the project itself or others according to the error log, but I could provide you a workaround for this issue:

Workaround:

• Download the package "Microsoft.Net.Native.SharedLibrary-x64" from the nuget.org.

• Use nuget add command line add that package to the global package folderC:\Users\username\.nuget\packages:

  nuget add packagePath -Source sourcePath

After that, you will notice the package will be added in to that folder:

- Update Microsoft.NETCore.UniversalWindowsPlatform package.
