Remove extension links

I am using Visual Studio .NET 2012 and NuGet for link management for my ASP.NET MVC 4 solution.

How to remove a link created using NuGet ? I know that I can just go and delete it by right-clicking Delete. However, this seems dangerous to me, because the packages mentioned may have brought other dependencies of their own.

In my main project, I right-clicked References->Manage NuGet Packages and installed Moq (see screenshot below)

Manage nuget packages

However, in my tests, I was not able to reference Moq .

I realized that the Guestbook.Tests project, created when creating my ASP.NET MVC 4 solution, has its own References .

So, I added Moq here, but I would like to clear and remove Moq from my main Guestbook project.

Can someone point me in the right direction how to do this safely?

Thank you in advance!

The easiest way is to go to TOOLS Library Package Manager Package Manager Console and enter the following:

Uninstall-Package Moq

You should always use the package manager, not just delete files so that it cleans everything, including everything that you might miss.

Using the same screen as you shown above, select the installed packages, then find the MOQ link in which you should be able to manage / delete.

You can use the package manager console with the command: Uninstall-Package PackageId to remove it, or simply remove the package folder from the "packages" folder in the solution folder. You can find more information about the package manager console here: http://docs.nuget.org/docs/reference/package-manager-console-powershell-reference
