Intellicence load pending forever visual studio Xamarin.Forms

Question

I am using Visual Studio 2019 latest version 16.7.0
When I create a new Xamarin.Forms Mobile application and Select Android and iOS as target platforms, I have no problem and everything works correctly. But if I check UWP (Universal Windows) and add it to target platforms, Intellicense will never load. If I open background tasks, it will show: Intellicense load pending...

How should I solve this problem?

Thanks.

EDIT:
for anyone having the same problem, I found a workaround.
Just create a new project without UWP Target platform, and then add UWP project manually.
for more information about adding UWP project manually, follow this link .

Answer 1

I also had a problem when my build stuck at "Loading IntelliSense" "Load pending", and it was caused by a Nuget package timeout, as AmirHossein Parsapour correctly pointed out.

I've just canceled the build (Cancel item of the Build menu) and run the build again, so the second time it took just a few seconds for the "Loading IntelliSense" task to complete. This time it was "1/3", "2/3", and finally "3/3" instead of "Load pending" so the build went forward without being stuck at Loading IntelliSense Load pending. Therefore, I didn't even need to close the project and run nuget restore MyProject.sln .

Answer 2

The problem was than visual studio couldn't restore nuget packages and gave timeout error.

I fixed that problem by downloading nuget cli and running

nuget restore "My Project.sln"

after that, I opened my project and the problem was solved
