Fastest way to copy/paste(reinstall) all Nuget Packages from one project to another?

Question

I have a .csproj named "A" with many Nuget packages.

I want to create a similar .csproj named "B" , with the same Nuget packages of "A".

In the same solution, I also have others .csproj with other stuff.

What's the fastest way to do it?

I tried to copy the packages.config from one to another and then executed this:

Update-Package –reinstall

The result was that it reinstalled ALL packages of ALL projects, but didn't really created any file on project "B" .

Answer 1

I think you just missed one switch. What if you copy the packages.config, as you did, and then use

Update-Package -reinstall - ProjectName (TheProjectName)
