I just installed the LTS version of the .NET Core SDK (1.0.0-preview2-003156). I created a new project by using
dotnet new
However, this fails because
Failed to create prime the NuGet cache. restore failed with 1.
I followed the directions in this post to clear my local package cache and I am left with this package:
System.Security.Cryptography.Algorithms
The 4.2.0\ref sub-directory gives me this error when I try to open it:
The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.
How do I go about clearing this package out or at least getting to the point where the package restore will work again?
I ended up having to run chkdsk against my machine. Because the package directory was on my C:\ drive, I had to reboot for it to run the disk repair. After the chkdsk completed, I was able to delete the package.
