Well, I think it is about time VS pushes notifications to it’s users to update to latest update available and recommended. 🙂
I was having issues downloading Nuget’s dependent on my project template on VS 2015 Update 1. After my co-worker mentioned he is using a different update version of VS 2015 he is on. I wanted to give it a try. Updated to update 3 and boom it started working.

May be it will help someone who is using old update of VS 2015 and having the below issue –
Error was -“Object reference not found”.
So, basically the project template was trying to download Nugets and each Nuget had multiple dependencies which VS update 1 was not able to deal well.
Other option is to download latest version of Nuget Package Extension, some told me even that worked.
Hope, this helps..
