What is a NUPKG file?

Install Pkg Windows

Files with the .NUPKG extension contain source code packages that can be used to create development project components in a Microsoft Visual Studio environment that uses the NuGet extension. NUPKG files are based on NUSPEC files, which consist of sets of DLL libraries.

The NuGet Package Manager extension allows you to use and manage third party libraries in MS Visual Studio in .NET projects. The most popular libraries added in this way to projects are Microsoft Entity Framework, jQuery, or JSON. The NuGet extension can be added to the development environment through the Extension Management window in the Tools menu.

Program(s) that can open the .NUPKG file

How to open NUPKG files

If you cannot open the NUPKG file on your computer - there may be several reasons. The first and most important reason (the most common) is the lack of a suitable software that supports NUPKG among those that are installed on your device.

A very simple way to solve this problem is to find and download the appropriate application. The first part of the task has already been done – the software supporting the NUPKG file can be found in the table. Now just download and install the appropriate application.

Possible problems with the NUPKG format files

The inability to open and operate the NUPKG file does not necessarily mean that you do not have an appropriate software installed on your computer. There may be other problems that also block our ability to operate the NuGet Source Code Package Format file. Below is a list of possible problems.

  • Corruption of a NUPKG file which is being opened
  • Incorrect links to the NUPKG file in registry entries.
  • Accidental deletion of the description of the NUPKG from the Windows registry
  • Incomplete installation of an application that supports the NUPKG format
  • The NUPKG file which is being opened is infected with an undesirable malware.
  • The computer does not have enough hardware resources to cope with the opening of the NUPKG file.
  • Drivers of equipment used by the computer to open a NUPKG file are out of date.

If you are sure that all of these reasons do not exist in your case (or have already been eliminated), the NUPKG file should operate with your programs without any problem. If the problem with the NUPKG file has not been solved, it may be due to the fact that in this case there is also another rare problem with the NUPKG file. In this case, the only you can do is to ask for assistance of a professional staff.

How to associate the file with an installed software?

If you want to associate a file with a new program (e.g. my-file.NUPKG) you have two ways to do it. The first and the easiest one is to right-click on the selected NUPKG file. From the drop-down menu select 'Choose default program', then click 'Browse' and find the desired program. The whole operation must be confirmed by clicking OK. The second and more difficult to do is associate the NUPKG file extension to the corresponding software in the Windows Registry.

Is there one way to open unknown files?

Many files contain only simple text data. It is possible that while opening unknown files (e.g. NUPKG) with a simple text editor like Windows Notepad will allow us to see some of the data encoded in the file. This method allows you to preview the contents of many files, but probably not in such a structure as a program dedicated to support them.

The PowerShell Gallery supports downloading a package from the website directly, without using thePowerShellGet cmdlets. You can download any package as a NuGet package (.nupkg) file, which youcan then copy to an internal repository.

Note

Manual package download is not intended as a replacement for the Install-Module cmdlet.Downloading the package doesn't install the module or script. Dependencies aren't included in theNuGet package downloaded. The following instructions are provided for reference purposes only.

Using manual download to acquire a package

Each page has a link for Manual Download, as shown here:

To download manually, click on Download the raw nupkg file. A copy of the package is copied tothe download folder for your browser with the name <name>.<version>.nupkg.

A NuGet package is a ZIP archive with extra files containing information about the contents of thepackage. Some browsers, like Internet Explorer, automatically replace the .nupkg file extensionwith .zip. To expand the package, rename the .nupkg file to .zip, if needed, then extract thecontents to a local folder.

A NuGet package file includes the following NuGet-specific elements that aren't part of theoriginal packaged code:

  • A folder named _rels - contains a .rels file that lists the dependencies
  • A folder named package - contains the NuGet-specific data
  • A file named [Content_Types].xml - describes how extensions like PowerShellGet work with NuGet
  • A file named <name>.nuspec - contains the bulk of the metadata

Installing PowerShell modules from a NuGet package

Note

These instructions DO NOT give the same result as running Install-Module. These instructionsfulfill the minimum requirements. They aren't intended to be a replacement for Install-Module.Some steps performed by Install-Module aren't included.

The easiest approach is to remove the NuGet-specific elements from the folder. Removing the elementsleaves the PowerShell code created by the package author.For the list of NuGet-specific elements, see Using manual download to acquire a package.

The steps are as follows:

  1. Unblock the Internet-downloaded NuGet package (.nupkg) file, for example usingUnblock-File -Path C:Downloadsmodule.nupkg cmdlet.
  2. Extract the contents of the NuGet package to a local folder.
  3. Delete the NuGet-specific elements from the folder.
  4. Rename the folder. The default folder name is usually <name>.<version>. The version caninclude -prerelease if the module is tagged as a prerelease version. Rename the folder to justthe module name. For example, azurerm.storage.5.0.4-preview becomes azurerm.storage.
  5. Copy the folder to one of the folders in the $env:PSModulePath value. $env:PSModulePath is asemicolon-delimited set of paths in which PowerShell should look for modules.

Important

The manual download doesn't include any dependencies required by the module. If the package hasdependencies, they must be installed on the system for this module to work correctly. ThePowerShell Gallery shows all dependencies required by the package.

Installing PowerShell scripts from a NuGet package

Note

These instructions DO NOT give the same result as running Install-Script. These instructionsfulfill the minimum requirements. They aren't intended to be a replacement for Install-Script.

The easiest approach is to extract the NuGet package, then use the script directly.
