.net - Why is System.Web.Mvc not listed in Add References?

Question

Using C#, Visual Studio 2010.

There is a namespace called System.Web.Mvc documented on MSDN. The documentation for all the types in that namespace says that they are in System.Web.Mvc.dll.

However, when I go to Add Reference, “.NET” tab, this assembly is missing from the list. Why?

Answer 1

Best way is to use NuGet package manager.

Just update the below MVC package and it should work.
