I try the following:

  1. Clear nuget cache from Tools menu. and temp, %temp% folders from RUN command.
  2. Clear visual studio cache from here. C:\Users\Dell\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio\17.0_27e1b93f
  3. Clear .vs hidden folder of solution.
  4. Clean and Rebuild Solution. But stuck into Restoring Nuget packages...)

We found that if there is delisted nuget package in our csproj then this can cause the same behavior.

For example: https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.AppCenter.Crashes/4.4.0

This package is delisted and once this package was upgraded to a version which is listed the restore loop went away.

I fixed this by updating the Nuget package source in Visual Studio 2022 on a machine that previously had the Visual Studio 2013 nuget package source

"In the Options window, expand the NuGet Package Manager node and select Package Sources."

package source name: nuget.org

package source: https://api.nuget.org/v3/index.json

While it is correct to consider the msbuild alternative when using command line, it is still very annoying for anything inside Visual Studio 2022. I am hitting it on many scenarios, like trying to run tests after build was successful.

Fortunately, it is now fixed in the latest Visual Studio 17.5.0 Preview 6.0 https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/preview/

According to your description I think the problem is that you used PackageReference and use nuget.exe to restore the packages.

We can see from this link that For projects migrated to PackageReference, use msbuild -t:restore to restore packages instead.

You can try msbuild -t:restore instead of nuget restore ***.csproj to restore packages if you are using PackageReference. For more details, please refer to the above link
