Q: How to install NuGet Package Manager in Visual Studio 2010? How can I install NuGet Package Manager in Visual Studio 2010?
I have already tried two options, but they haven't worked.
Firstly, I attempted to install nuget.tools from this URL: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=NuGetTeam.NuGetPackageManager.
However, I received this error message

Secondly, I tried to install it from the Extension Manager,
but I received the error message
Cannot search for online extensions because an error occurred while trying to contact the server

None of the online forums I have found have been able to help with these two issues.
