I just installed Visual Studio 15 Preview 2 (The newest one) and I have notice when right clicking on your solution there is no "Manage Nuget Packages" option (or what ever the old one was called) has the nuget thing been totally removed or not? can someone help me with this because Microsoft hasn't really helped me much with it and google hasn't given me much help either..
You'll need to install the NuGet Package Manager for Visual Studio 15 Preview extension.
Tools > Extensions and Updates > Online
Then search for NuGet and download the official NuGet Package Manager extension by Microsoft Corporation.
I had the same problem with Visual Studio 2017 RC. You have to rerun the installer (vs_installer.exe) then go to the "Individual Components" tab, scroll down to "Code tools" and add "Nuget package manager".

Can you please try the following:

3)Restart VS
I found the solution

reinstall Rocks
start Visual Studio and problem should be solved
Visual Studio 2017 version 15.4 was released but my VS instance does not offer the update yet. How can I manually trigger an update?
Launch the visual studio installer (hit the windows key and type the name, you'll find it). It will then ask you to allow it to update itself, after which you will be offered the update.
You can update it from Notifications Hub left side of Visual studio.
In Notification Hub/Pane click on "Visual Studio Update" is available.
Or You can also update it from Visual Studio Installer.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/install/update-visual-studio
Tools -> Extensions and Updates -> Updates
To update the core , let say from 15.4 > 15.9 , you need launch Visual Studio then
Help > Check for updates
To add\remove\update other sub component , you will need to run the Visual Studio installer and pick the require option.
Use the Visual Studio Installer
1-Open the installer.
2-In the installer, look for the edition of Visual Studio that you installed.

I cannot see AnkhSVN as an option under "Tools - Options - Source Control" in Visual Studio 2017. I have uninstalled and reinstalled AnkhSVN, but no effect.
Is there a way to fix this?
I came here looking for an answer to the same question. I am Running Windows 10 Enterprise and had VS2015 with AnkhSVN working before and after installing VS2017, but in VS2017 AnkhSVN was not available under SCC Plug-In Selection (even after uninstall and reinstall of the install executables downloaded from http://ankhsvn.open.collab.net, which offer registration against VS Dev15/2017).
This is what eventually worked:
Removed AnkhSVN (Windows: Add or Remove Programs)
Installed AnkhSVN Nuget package (Visual Studio: Tools/Extensions and Updates)
So the trick I believe is to "remove program installed by MSI/EXE followed by install extension via Visual Studio VSIX".
I was also subsequently able to upgrade AnkhSVN (2.7.12815 from VSIX install), by running the downloaded EXE installer for the latest daily build (2.7.12821), after which AnkhSVN is available in both VS2015 and 2017, although I had to reselect it in 2015.
I had the same issue with VS2017 and tried the solution provided by AlanK to no avail.
Here is the solution that solved the problem for me:
https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/119486/on-fresh-installation-extensions-are-not-working.html
Uninstall the source control plug-in.
Make a backup of the following files:
C:\USERS\USERNAME\APPDATA\LOCAL\MICROSOFT\VISUALSTUDIO\15.0_XXXXXXXX\privateregistry.bin
C:\USERS\USERNAME\APPDATA\LOCAL\MICROSOFT\VISUALSTUDIO\15.0_XXXXXXXX\privateregistry.user.bin
Remove these files:
C:\USERS\USERNAME\APPDATA\LOCAL\MICROSOFT\VISUALSTUDIO\15.0_XXXXXXXX\privateregistry.bin
C:\USERS\USERNAME\APPDATA\LOCAL\MICROSOFT\VISUALSTUDIO\15.0_XXXXXXXX\privateregistry.user.bin
Start Visual Studio 2017.
Install the source control plug-in.
You have to install "Ankh.VS15Package.vsix" package along with AnkhSVN software in your system as the version of AnkhSVN that you are installing might be supporting only up to Visual Studio 2015 or less. I had the same issue and resolved it by installing the package mentioned.
I had a similar issue after one of the Visual Studio 2017 updates. I had Visual Studio running and I was attempting to follow #AlanK's steps. I uninstalled as in Step 1. When I did Step 2, VS said the plugin was installed already. I restarted Visual Studio, thinking it was confused about the fact I uninstalled via Add/Remove programs.
I checked again and the AnkhSVN plugin was shown as disabled. I enabled it and then AnkhSVN and VS 2017 started playing nicely again.
I read the answer from Snehlata Shaw, and I think what I uninstalled from Add/Remove programs is the 2015 and earlier version of AnkhSvn. I can't be 100% sure that uninstalling it did or did not help with the 2017 version.
In summary, make sure the plugin isn't just disabled. VS 2017 says (now that is enabled) that AnknSvn slows down startup by 6 seconds and perhaps I disabled it not realizing what I was doing (Monday morning??).
Reporting template Component (RDLC) not exists to as New Item in Visual Studio 2017 Enterprise.
How to resolve this?
I have tried by installing SQL Server Data Tools.
Previously it works for me in Visual Studio 2015.
There is a bug in the extension Microsoft Rdlc Report Designer for Visual Studio that the ReportViewer shows up as a non-visual component.
Instead use the NuGet Package Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportViewerControl.WinForms for each project that will use the ReportViewer. Part of the solution involves removing the ReportViewer from the toolbox after use and restarting Visual Studio before opening the next project/solution.
Please see this answer to a similar question for step by step details.
The RDLC editor for VS2017 is only available as a VSIX installer from the marketplace: Download
I have just used VS2015 to add the new item. All other stuff seems to be fine in VS2017 (bearing in mind that you installed the VSIX extension)
I'm building a basic Django Project in Visual Studio 2015 (Update 2). I have installed the Nuget extention. However, I can't select the "Manage Nuget Package for Solution...".
I've already spent hours on the web (and largely here) trying to figure out how to manage that...
I'm not in debug mode...
I'm quite a newbie in Visual Studio, any help appreciated! Thanks,
