VS 2019 Install-Package Automatically Updated Dependencies - How to revert?

Question

My project uses an older version of EF Core and when I tried to run this:

Install-Package Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.InMemory

It uninstalled and reinstalled a bunch of from this previous version to the latest version. Example:

Successfully uninstalled 'Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore XXX' from Project

Successfully installed 'Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore 5.0.1' to Project

There are a bunch of others as well. Can I revert this somehow? Also, if I want to keep the InMemory package do I have to specify an older version so it does not update what I assume are these dependencies?

Answer 1

I have solved this by running

Install-Package Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.InMemory -Version XXX

This uninstalled the 5.0.1 versions and reinstalled the older version of all the dependencies that were previously updated. No other commands were needed.
