I tried to install Xamarin.Android.Support.Annotations 28.0.0 only to the Android part of my Xamarin Forms project.



There's a popup with:



Microsoft Visual Studio is busy
We'll automatically report this delay to Microsoft...


No matter how long I wait, I can't open the project. What do I have to do to clear the cache to be able to load my project again?

    Remove the package entry manually from the packages.config and the csproj file?

What do I have to do to clear the cache to be able to load my project again?




To clear the nuget cache, you can download the NuGet command line tool from nuget.org.



Then, open a command prompt and cd to the directory to where nuget.exe is located.



You can list the local caches with this command:



nuget locals all -list


You can clear all caches with this command:



nuget locals all -clear


Check more info: Managing the global packages, cache, and temp folders.



Note: If your Visual Studio is not the latest version, please try to update it, MS fixed this issue on the some newer version.



Hope this helps.
